My Review:-🌈The cover on this book is beautiful, I love the colours and the illustrations. Tales from Beyond the Rainbow has 10 fairy tales, which can be read in any order at anytime. The stories are short, but each one had a message within them. My favourite was "The Dog and the Sailor." In this story you will meet Valeria and young, talented and powerful witch, who turns a boy into a dog. You will also meet Ruan a boy that lived with his mother on the coast of Cornwall. Ruan wanted to go to see but his mother was against it, until one day she gave her blessing for him to go. I'll leave it there as I didn't want to say to much. This is the first book that I have read from this author, but will be looking for more.
