This book is a collection of reimagined fairy tales – some in verse, some in prose. Some of them are quite modern. I’m not the world’s biggest fan of verse, but really enjoyed these stories.
I think my favorite story was “The Seven Shoes” – there’s a witch there, but it’s really just a tale of growing up, and just really resonated with me.
There’s plenty more to love. Several of the stories deal with after the tale is over, and they’re just handled with such grace. I loved this collection.
