The collection includes thirty-four fairy tales by Scandinavian writers. Their translation from Swedish was done by V. Yu. Volodin. The publication is decorated with magnificent illustrations by the talented Swedish artist John Bauer (1882-1918). At the end of the book there is a selection of his drawings from different years. This is the main feature of this edition. Bauer was not the only master who turned to the folklore of his native country in his work, but he occupies a very special place among such artists. His images of fairy-tale trolls and gnomes are so original and distinctive that they involuntarily make you believe in the existence of a fairy-tale world inhabited by these creatures.
