Katya0133 Two different feminist takes on classic fairy tales.
Member Reviews
One of my favorite fractured fairy tales. I do like Jay Williams at his best. Unfortunately the modern illustrations are rather meh (the animals & props fine, the people 'off'), and it's really too long a story to be an oversize picture-book anyway... better for ages 7-10 or so than for tots.
47 months - We all really enjoyed this fairytale. It's a fairly long one and it takes most of the bedtime reading but it's worth it.
