520 8  While the modern children's book, intended specifically 
       for the enjoyment of children, did not emerge until 18th-
       century Europe, its roots span centuries and continents: 
       children's literature began with fables, myths and folk 
       tales from the oral tradition. A History of the Children's
       Book in 100 Books takes a global perspective and traces 
       the development of the genre from ancient stories such as 
       Aesop's Fables and the Indian Panchatantra, through the 
       Puritan primers of the 17th century, to the fairy tales of
       the Brothers Grimm, to the highly collectable Ladybird 
       books of the 20th century, and up to modern classics and 
       bestsellers such as the Harry Potter series. Illustrations
       have often been key components of children's stories, 
       visualizing fantastic scenes and making them instantly 
       recognizable. Original artwork from iconic illustrators 
       such as Arthur Rackham, Walter Crane and John Tenniel is 
       beautifully reproduced throughout.
