"International bestselling children's author Cornelia Funke has always been fascinated by fairy tales; they have often crept into her own storytelling. In this enchanting anthology, Funke presents lesser-known stories that challenge the traditional 'happily-ever-after' alongside more familiar tales. From her native Germany to snowy Siberia, from Japan to Vietnam, this collection includes wondrous tales from around the world, 'The Girl Who Gave a Knight a Kiss out of Necessity', 'The Frog Princess', 'The Boy Who Drew Cats' and many more besides to delight readers of all ages."
