Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Helpful elves reward a virtuous shoemaker in a large-format retelling with "exceptional" pictures; "Watts's warm, luminous illustrations provide the perfect counterpart to Tolstoy's lovely, mystical story," praised PW. Ages 5-8. (Sept.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved
