Walkers Illustrated Classics

     
     


From The Guardian: Walkers have republished some of some of the best-loved children's stories using  the best illustrators to produce a beautiful collection of books. They intend to publish one book a month throughout 2009. These beautiful, critically acclaimed books of children's literature are targeted at the 'new generation'.

The collection, so far, includes:

The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame, illustrated by Inga Moore
Classic Poetry, selected by children's laureate Michael Rosen, illustrated by Paul Howard
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, illustrated by Helen Oxenbury
The Secret Garden by F Hodgson Burnett, illustrated by Inga Moore
The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling, illustrated by Nicola Bayley

I so want to buy a collection (for myself, never mind the children).
