This little gem from the Folio Society highlights Charles van Sandwyk's extraordinarily lovely work, which has become a favorite indulgence. Many moments of joy come from perusing the detailed tiny drawings in this fold-out offering showing the many facets of mouse-hood.

This is a delightful small volume, mostly illustrations, with a tiny envelope and note or letter attached to several of the pages. The correspondence between the author/artist and His Imperial Majesty Watson Wimplewort Rex provides the simple story of the King's request for a portrait, and the fulfillment of that request. Just lovely. An elegant companion to van Sandwyk's How to See Fairies.

Well, this Folio edition of van Sandwyk's whimsical poems and vignettes, with his own fantastic illustrations, proves that there is magic in the world under our feet and above our heads, if only we can open our eyes to see it. This book isn't just illustrated, it's illuminated, like a medieval manuscript. It includes a full color fold-out accompaniment to the poem "Afterglow". And it's lovingly dedicated to "the everlasting memory of Arthur Rackham (1867-1939) who was rather fond of sardines."

Altogether lovely. Makes me want to collect all the classics he has illustrated.
