Few little girls can resist a princess. The renowned illustrator, Peter Malone, has created an extraordinary, richly detailed treasury with eight of the most beloved heroines in classic fairy tales. And what heroines they are! Spirited and strong-willed, they hold great appeal for the contemporary audience, and are memorably rendered in Malones distinctive style. He places the stories--The Princess and the Pea, Rapunzel, The Sleeping Beauty, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, The Twelve Dancing Princesses, and The Frog Prince--in specific eras and locales rather than stereotypical fantasy settings.
Tis the season to be jolly -- and holey cheese was I trying! But on my way to New York City to meet my family for the holidays, my luggage got switched with another mouse's... Oh, rats! Now I had to scurry all over the Big Apple trying to track down that mouse... and all my Christmas presents! And I, Geronimo Stilton, am not a big cheese when it comes to getting around the Big Apple!
