  Anemoulis

  2024-07-31

  What can one say about these novels, beautiful stories and the illustrations are what make them dreamlike.

  We used to have several fairy tales by Stratikis, but over time they got damaged, torn, and we threw away many of them. I am starting to collect the books again because they remind me of my childhood years.

  I think that the newer printing does not capture the wonderful colors at 100%, either I remember them more vividly and brightly or the printing is indeed mediocre and makes them appear duller. The photos make them look quite vivid, but that's because of my phone.

  Anyway, I really like Stratikis' books, especially the stories of the flowers, they are among my favorites. It has stories from ancient Greece as well as from other countries.

  They are not for very young children, I would say they are more for adults or teenagers, as many of the stories have a bad ending (death) and somewhere there a god intervenes and transforms the dead person into a flower.
