This quirky and interactive book uses translucent vellum paper to create a foggy and mysterious atmosphere that “shrouds” the illustrations in shadows until you turn the page and they reveal themselves on the reverse side to be various fairytale characters — in full colour — doing something that’s not quite expected.

Complemented with short rhyming text in a Q&A format — e.g. “What can this be in the foggy, foggy forest? A little elf all by himself” — this is a fun read that will also get kids to exercise their visualisation skills.
