The Curious Fish

My 5 7 year old sons love this book. A great read before visiting a lake or going fishing. Good for imagination and kindness. Her books are always written gracefully and illustrated beautifully.

This book is a wonderfully creative story. The illustrations are classic. The story can be told over and over again with the adult and child both finding enjoyment. I hope to add more books by this author to my collection. I know that some books are timeles and children of all walks of life find delight in the story- this is that kind of book. I will only have books for children in my home that I love reading over and over-this is that kind of book.

Great book. Love everything by this author. Whimsical nature story

A very sweet children’s book, the illustrations are superb.

My kids love this weird story so we read it often. As with many of the "waldorf recommended books" the story line is strange but cute none the less and it's just my adult opinion my kids love this story very much!

I take this to my grandchildren's house to read to them. I especially like the artwork, and they especially like the story. It's very sweet and beautifully done.

Very cute book. I didn't pay attention to the size of the book but I wasn't pleasantly surprised to receive the larger copy. We love Elsa Beskow books!

My husband is from Sweden and introduced me to Elsa Beskow. Her stories might have lost something in translation, I never found the writing very engaging, but the ideas were wholesome and the illustrations were profoundly beautiful, inspiring my own illustrations. I had posters of her work all over my children's bedrooms.
