SynopsisGnomesis the product of Rien Poortvliet and Wil Huygen’s observation of the local gnome population in Holland. UntilGnomeswas first published in Dutch in 1976, these friendly nocturnal creatures were only represented in folk lore; descriptions were often incomplete or simply inaccurate. Poortvliet and Huygen, having studied and interviewed gnomes for two decades, set out to fill this gap with their own encyclopedic tome. Gnomescovers all areas of gnome culture, including architecture, education, courtship, medicine, industry, and relationships with other mythical creatures. Huygen’s sober descriptions are balanced by Poortvliet’s light-hearted portrayals of gnomes at work and at play. Thirty years later, this beautifully illustrated volume continues to engage and enchant readers of all ages.

Lovely book
Not necessarily for young children, but it is a wonderful book for collectors. I originally bought it for my nine year old daughter. However, there are a few pages that were quite inappropriate for a child. We learned quickly that we need to be together to enjoy this book. That way I can censor as we go along. The pictures are beautiful.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
