The book has been translating using a Classic Medieval English approach regarding pronouns and phrasing to emphasise the fairy-tale genre, so some may find it a little odd to read in the beginning if they’re not used to that. Also, I assume the translator tried to keep close to the original Russian structure as there are common sayings which I’ve never heard before but really enjoyed all the same as they brought a lovely unique touch. Per usual, the tales have moralising messages which many of us will remember from the classical fairy-tales of our own childhood. This book is great for all ages and a must if you’ve already read the Brother Grimms and Joseph Jacobs. Review: Quality Writing Russian Fairy Tales ( - Like stories. Loved illustrations. Entertaining. Selection of stories we're interesting. A bit repetitive in style, but reflected the epoch and style of this period of writing. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #146,120 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #833 in Children's Folk Tales & Myths (Books) #957 in Folklore (Books) #1,479 in Children's Classics | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 745 Reviews | ## Images ![Russian Fairy Tales (Illustrated) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51LDBzLJwbL._SX38_SY50_CR,0,0,38,50_.jpg) ![Russian Fairy Tales (Illustrated) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61wsgsBzwGL._SX38_SY50_CR,0,0,38,50_.jpg) ![Russian Fairy Tales (Illustrated) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61wsgsBzwGL._SY522_.jpg) ![Russian Fairy Tales (Illustrated) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71xUkZFtWCL._SL1250_.jpg) ![Russian Fairy Tales (Illustrated) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71xUkZFtWCL._SY522_.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful book *by D***J on 30 March 2021* Bought this book and couldn’t put it down.

Loved illustrations. Entertaining. Selection of stories we're interesting. A bit repetitive in style, but reflected the epoch and style of this period of writing. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A beautiful book for lovers of Bilibin's art. *by A***R on 28 November 2013* This is a superb book with good quality illustrations on lovely silky pages. I have seen some very poor reviews of this book but maybe they were for the paperback - I bought the hardback. The text font and layout were lovely too, The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the language is archaic, and I thought that if anyone bought it to read to small children they might be disappointed. I bought it to wallow in the beautiful illustrations, and it lives up to all my expectations. ## Frequently Bought Together - Russian Fairy Tales (Illustrated) - Russian Tales - Russian Fairy-Tales: Palekh, Mstiora, Kholui Russkie narodnye skazki: zhivopis' Paleha, Mstjory, Holuja BR [Russian] --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/527144370-russian-fairy-tales-illustrated](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/527144370-russian-fairy-tales-illustrated) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
