Dark Folk Tales

Dark Folk Tales – tab pull book, medieval binding, etching, tannin dyeing, drawing.

This is a bad bed time book. Fairy tales and folk tales often have a basis in older and darker stories where not everything ends well and the protagonists don’t always understand the true ripple effect of their actions. The saying “be careful what you wish for” starts with this. The book has 5 archetypical stories that all seem to start well but when the side action tab is pulled a nastier image is revealed.
