ABBEY'S BOOKSELLER PICK ----- This rather gorgeous edition is based on film stills from a classic German film. Lotte Reiniger was a pioneer in silhouette animation, and beautifully detailed cut-out silhouettes adorn each page of this simple retelling of the beloved fairy tale. The illustrations pop out on each double page against painted backdrops, and the effect is both dream-like and dramatic. A treasure to keep or collect. Lindy Jones

Recreating the magic of Lotte Reiniger's early films through remastered film stills and laser-cut pop-ups, each spread is intricately detailed and perfectly complements this much-loved classic fairy tale.
