1860 FAIRY TALES Charles Perrault Illustrated Cinderella French Riding Hood RARE"A dream is a wish your heart makes."
― Charles Perrault, Cinderella
Charles Perrault was a 17th-century French author who is most-remembered for his fairy tales. When "Les Contes" was first written it was quite ahead of its time, and his writing helped lay the groundwork for a new literary genre that would become very popular throughout Europe of the next century. Many of his fairy tales include stories that are still popular today such as Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Thumbelina, and Sleeping Beauty.
This printing is a fine, 19th-century printing that includes charming illustrations and a decorative front cover.

Chicago, Illinois: Scott, Foresman and Company, 1951. Fabulous vintage Dick and Jane - an oversized folio measuring approximately 19 x 24-1/2", still in original presentation covers with attached board-stands. Three ring internal binder (as issued) with each large folio of four pictures bound together with reinforced (again, as issued) leatherette spines. Contains all 6 "stories" (a total of 24 large pictures) from the We Look and See, the beginning pre-Primer. It would appear that pages 1 and 2 - likely introduction notes, are missing - but ALL THE MARVELLOUS 1950s pages are there. And glorious they are! Clean, bright and fresh, each page has no marks whatsoever - perhaps a touch of age toning and faint signs of handling along outer page edges, otherwise truly fine. The leatherette binder/presentation folder is still in reasonable condition and has the original paste-down label on front. Spines are beginning to crack and the corners are a little bumped, but otherwise…
