Some time ago i was thinking about the fairy tale books i used to have as a child. I remembered some in particular that had very pretty ilustrations.

Like, look at this Red Riding Hood. Maybe is childhood nostalgia speaking but i really think she is one of the cutest Red Riding Hoods i've ver seen

There is also this The Wolf and the Seven Little Lambs. I couldn't find in good quality but i think de cover art is very beautiful

I also had a collection of fairy tale books that came in a little box that was really pretty. The ilustrations were nice too.

This collection had Snow White, Rapunzel, The Brave Little Tailor, Rumpelstiltskin and The Princess and The Frog

I really would like to know if there are recent fairy tale books pretty like those. I really regret not keeping them.

it’s very easy to tell the good satires and pastiches from the bad ones because the bad ones are too afraid to live within the form. like if you are doing work with fairy tales and you are refusing to look closer at the underlying logic and unspoken rules of what can seem at first to be a senseless form, you are not going to create meaningful work. to borrow a turn of phrase originally used by maria tatar, if you refuse to enter “the house of fairy tale” as anything more than a gawking tourist, you will miss the particular order to the way the table is set, the rooms that are locked vs the rooms that are simply difficult to enter, the set of the floorboards and the position of the furniture. whatever you build will then be a gilded imitation of how you believe the house of fairy tale ought to look, the table set according to your educated specifications and every door open. there can be no interrogation of themes from a writer who views the form as beneath them!
