Once upon a time, artist Scott Gustafson set out to illustrate classic stories, fairy tales, and nursery rhymes. Decades later, his immediately recognizable paintings have made bestsellers of Peter Pan, The Night Before Christmas, Classic Fairy Tales, and Favorite Nursery Rhymes from Mother Goose . Now he gives us Classic Bedtime Stories , a lavishly illustrated, oversized collection of some of his favorite tales. Stories such as Sleeping Beauty, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Sambha and the Tigers leap off the page thanks to Gustafsons exquisite paintings and lively retelling of these classics. The Lion and the Mouse and The Country Mouse and the City Mouse demonstrate his talent at creating uncanny anthropomorphic characters who keep us smiling even as they teach us about tolerance, diversity, and the Golden Rule. A book that even adults will enjoy reading aloud again and again, Classic Bedtime Stories will keep youngsters of all ages engaged for hours. Gustafsons unique style makes this a volume to be cherished by children, parents, and grandparents for generations to come. Review: Artwork beautiful - Beautiful artwork and the stories are amazing.

Kindle Review
It is worth it as a long term investment... beautiful illustrations and stories worth reading to your kids and works well on the Android App, however it does not display properly on the following platforms: iPad, Cloud Reader, Windows 8 Reader. Within each paragraph, the text is printed on top of each other like it is performing a 1/4 space line feed. It overlaps even in zoom mode making it impossible to read. I kept it because it was on sale for $2 and I have hope that it will be fixed in the future.

A beautiful book
I was recommended to purchase a book of bedtime stories for my grandchildren. They are all either early readers or almost readers. The person who recommended this book suggested this age still needs a bedtime story book that is read by an adult even though they are early readers. Sometimes, they are just too tired to try to read so these stories allow me to read to them with beautiful illustrations. The stories themselves are ones the little ones really try to read but they allow me to read the difficult parts while they lose themselves in the story.

Belles illustrations
Je n'ai pas choisi d'offrir cet ouvrage pour les histoires (classiques parmi les classiques), mais pour les très belles illustrations, qui ne peuvent que faire rêver un enfant.
