Hansel & Gretel - Hardcover

Echoes of Klee and the Czech modernist tradition enliven this extraordinary, exhilarating retelling of the familiar Grimm tale, executed in the artist's inimitable style.

The Brothers Grimm are famous throughout the world for their tales and legends, which have been translated, retold, and illustrated by myriad authors and artists. Celebrated artist Kveta Pacovská was born in Prague where she still lives and works. She began her career as an illustrator in the fifties and her illustrations have become immediately recognizable for the use of bold, saturated colors and her passion for geometric and abstract shapes. She has received numerous awards including the prestigious Hans Christian Andersen Medal. Her minedition books include Number Circus, My Bedtime Monster, and The Little Flower King.
