As a long-time admirer of Angela Barrett's gorgeous fairy-tale artwork - her version of Snow White is one of my absolute favorites, while the artwork she contributed to Max Eilenberg's Beauty and the Beast is simply breathtaking! - I was very excited when I happened upon The Most Wonderful Thing in the World, a lovely original fairy-tale from author Vivian French. The story reads like a traditional tale, with some wonderful contemporary details, like the fact that one of the suitors think that weapons (of mass destruction) are the most wonderful thing in the world. The ending, for all that I expected it, was quite satisfying. The artwork, done in watercolor, was just lovely, with all of the many enchanting details and magical vistas that I have come to expect from Angela Barrett. Highly recommended to all fairy-tale lovers, as well as to fellow Barrett fans! ( )
