Summary
A farmer's wife who has always wanted a child asks a wise old woman where she can find one. The woman gives her a magic grain of corn which grows into a beautiful flower in which sits the tiniest little girl - 'exactly the same size as your thumb' - hence her name, Thumbelina.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
A sensitive retelling of Hans Christian Andersen's beloved fairy tale, exquisitely rendered in watercolors by Emma Chichester Clark. A tiny girl, born in a flower, is seized in the night by an ugly toadÂ
and so begins the fantastic journey of Thumbelina. Jane Falloon's graceful retelling of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy story retains all the magic of the original, while Thumbelina's miniature world is brought to life in Emma Chichester Clark's richly detailed watercolors. Award-winner Emma Chichester Clark has written and illustrated many highly praised books for children, including I Love You, Blue Kangaroo!, which was shortlisted for the Kate Greenaway Award; Where Are You, Blue Kangaroo?; It Was You, Blue Kangaroo!; Cunning Cat Tales; and Little Miss Muffetâs Count-Along Surprise.
