[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Margaret Hodges's "St George and the Dragon" is fantastic - brilliant illustrations by Tricia Hyman, excellent text. It's an adaptation of a story from the Faerie Queene. She did a few more in that genre -- The Kitchen Knight: A Tale from King Arthur & Comus, but St George was the best. Big hit with the kids. The older British Ladybird books (1960s - 1970s) can be excellent, though some of them do use a more controlled vocabulary. But at least it's the controlled vocabulary that would be familiar to a Brit of that era, which is a bit distinct from ours. Most of the ones produced during that time have gorgeous illustrations on one side, text on the other. [/quote] Definitely second St. George and the Dragon![/quote]
