Stories to read or tell from fairy tales and folklore
A 1911 New York collection of fairy tales and folklore compiled by Laure Claire Foucher with illustrations by Ada Budell, intended for children to read aloud or retell. The four line drawings are pen-and-ink with flowing hair, stylised curtains and patterned robes, and wind-blown action; a designer could borrow their decorative Art Nouveau linework, dynamic diagonal composition and dramatic silhouettes for storybook or period-style layouts.
