Book description
Kate Greenwaway (1846-1901) is one of the most popular children's book
illustrators of all time. Edmund Evans produced her first book in 1879,
which sold out resulting in triumph and gaining Greenaway her
reputation. She has enchanted people, young and old, for over one
hundred years with her watercolour illustrations of sweet, charming
eighteenth century children with their quaint costumes and idyllic
scenes. This book 'The Pied Piper Of Hamelin', written by Robert
Browning and illustrated by Kate Greenaway was originally published in
1888. Many of the earliest children's books, particularly those dating
back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly
expensive. Pook Press are working to republish these classic works in
affordable, high quality, colour editions, using the original text and
artwork so these works can delight another generation of children.
