hit them as the coup dc grace mr newfeld gave his character a bad case of acne john montgomery simon and the golden sword a canadian fairytale in pictures i by frank newfeld and william toyc oxford university press toronto 1976 hard cover unnumbered pmffremas jip by anne howes this little book an- nounces itself as a canadian fairytale in pictures but dont expect to find anything canadian either in the pictures or the text and dont be put off by the publishers shameless attempt to ride the en thusiastic wave of canlit the tale albeit collected in new brun swick successfully in corporates strands of everyones favourite european fairytales all the ingredients are there three sons one of whom will triumph transformations a magic sword and help to be found in unlikely places from unlikely agents i suspect that from a childs point of view this story is an actual im provement on the form of folk tales for while the tinder box and the storys other derivatives are often unrelieved by conversation simon and the golden swokd sparkles with conversation and rhyme it is unfortunate that the publisher considered tins book a fairytale in pictures- as this suggests jliat the picluresare the vehtclefbrlhe texfvwfiile the pictures are bright and colourful they do evidence a carelessness that should not award them higher regard than the text perhaps it is merely the illustrators ability to design that defeats accurate illustration some of the pictures are lovely and satisfying in themselves some are small masterpieces of design all suffer from poor layout atidtogether they ctonottell the story this is a book f6cbfl9fenwn can read well themselves or children who have a considerable con centration span not for those who need to find a story- in pictures it would be of lasting interest to know how the various european tales were found wound together in new bruns wick simon and the golden sword makes a strong enough im pression to promote such questions 77it- whdlehearfedly recommend this book to anyone who would in troduce children to their own love of fairytales simon and the golden sword is a tale well worth the telling stouffville the discharge of firearms will be
