Puss in Boots

by Charles Perrault

Puss in Boots Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Charles Perrault's Puss in Boots has been an irresistible magnet for countless illustrators ever since this classic French tale was first published in 1697. So the question arises: Do we really need another edition of Puss? Presented with Fred Marcellino's magnificent interpretation of this nimble new translation of the authentic text, book lovers young and old are apt to decide that this Puss in Boots belongs on their shelf of special favorites.

Long regarded as the preeminent designer of book jackets in America, Fred Marcellino provides an unstinting visual feast in his first full-color picture book. The eadventures of that rascal, Puss, and his master, the miller's sonare portrayed in a lavish series of illustrations that range from sumptuous grandeur to comedy both boisterous and sly.

Synopsis:

"Perrault's classic story . . . brilliantly conceived and executed" ("Publishers Weekly"). "The artwork inside is suffused with a golden light that proclaims the story to be from a sunnier, more dreamlike world".--"Booklist". Full color.

Synopsis:

A Caldecott Honor Book in a deluxe softcover edition.
