Publisher: Morrow/HarperCollins

One of the landmarks of children's fantasy: an enduring favorite first published in 1907, now reissued in the "Books of Wonder" series with a dozen splendid new color illustrations that extend an award-winning artist's already extraordinary range. Skillfully selecting pivotal, magical moments, Zelinsky again uses his trademark dynamic perspectives and figures, while depicting the intriguing castle itself in enchantingly imaginative detail. A delightful blend of period flavor, contemporary sensibility, and innovative composition. (Fiction. 8-12)
