"The Wild Swans" is one of Andersen's best fairy tales. In a beautiful castle lived little Princess Elisa and her eleven brothers, the princes. The children were pure of heart, beautiful, and kind, but this did not save them from the evil stepmother's curse. She turned the young princes into swans and banished poor Elisa from the castle... But this fairy tale, like all the most beautiful fairy tales in the world, has a happy ending. Anton Lomaev's wonderful, captivating, truly fairy-tale illustrations add a special charm to the story familiar from childhood. For middle school age.
