Hans Christian Andersen's classic tale of Thumbelina comes to life with this delightful flip-the-flap book!
Once upon a time, there was a young woman who longed for a little girl.
One day she went to see a wise old woman. "Plant this seed in a flowerpot," said the old woman, "and soon you will have a little girl".
So the young woman carefully planted the seed, and at once a beautiful flower bud grew...
When a young woman plants a magic seed, a flower bud grows, Inside is a tiny child, the size of a woman's thumb, and so the woman calls the little girl Thumbelina. One night, Thumbelina is captured by an ugly toad, who arranges for her son to marry the little girl. Eventually, Thumbelina is lead to a kingdom of tiny people just like her and marries the fairy prince.
