    Summary: 
    Troublesome trolls, helpful tomtes, incredible animals and brave princesses -- welcome to the world of Swedish folklore as imagined by acclaimed artist John Bauer. This sumptuously illustrated centenary edition includes twenty-two classic stories by well-known Scandinavian authors such as Elsa Beskow and Anna Wahlenberg, along Bauer's luminous artwork, which sparkles with character, detail and wild imagination.
