Nominated for the 2018 Hans Christian Andersen Award This is the first extraordinary volume of tales collected, retold and illustrated by Jane Ray, one of the world's leading artists of stunning picture books. This volume, The Emperor's Nightingale and Other Feathery Tales, includes many favourites such as The Happy Prince, The Owl and The Pussy Cat, and lesser known, but equally enjoyable stories such as Jorinda and Joringel.
"Only an author and artist of Jane Ray’s dazzling talent could do justice to this stunning collection of bird stories, which she has told with elegant simplicity and illustrated in full colour throughout. This is the perfect gift to make a child’s imagination soar."
–Shirley Hughes OBE
