REVIEW 10 out of 10!!!
Tom Thumb rides again!
Reviewed in the United States on August 23
It doesn't have the age level for this book listed anywhere, however, my six year old son read it with some help. I would say it was written for an older child (7 and up) as there were quite a few words that my son didn't recognize. I liked it because it challenged him. I loved this story when I was young. I would recommend this book. Beautiful illustrations!!
Tom Thumb is a character of English folklore. The History of Tom Thumb was published in 1621 and was the first fairy tale printed in English. Tom is no bigger than his father's thumb, and his adventures include being swallowed by a cow, tangling with giants, and becoming a favourite of King Arthur. The earliest allusions to Tom occur in various 16th-century works such as Reginald Scot's Discovery of Witchcraft (1584), where Tom is cited as one of the supernatural folk employed by servant maids to frighten children. Tattershall in Lincolnshire, England, reputedly has the home and grave of Tom Thumb.[1]
