Thumbelina

Floris Books

A mini picture-book edition of Hans Christian Andersen's Thumbelina, illustrated by Elsa Beskow. The tiny heroine journeys through forests, flowers and fields, sleeping in a walnut shell and flying on a swallow's back, meeting charming creatures along the way. Beskow's vintage artwork brings the tale to life, making it a gentle story to share and a good prompt for imagination and early listening.
