Tales of the Peculiar

This illustrated collection gathers strange fairy tales from the world associated with Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children. Its stories include wealthy cannibals, a princess with a forked tongue, people who become islands, and accounts of the first ymbryne. The short tales have a darkly macabre quality and are presented as morality tales. Black-and-white drawings appear throughout the book, accompanying the unusual people, transformations, and unsettling bargains described in its stories.
