Thumbalina

The Adventures of Thumbalina is marvelous. A coming of age story with so many interesting characters. The swallow, a wise poet, guiding the heroine through many dangers and choices. The meddling, over-protective mouse mother type, and the horrible mole! Kidnapping frogs and beetles, kind fish and in the end, finally joined with her own kind: the fairies!
