Snow White: Silver Anniversary Edition

SarahKate's Notes:

Wow! We loved the illustrations in this book, a true adaptation of the Snow White tale translated from Brothers Grimm. In the end the wicked queen puts on the red hot slippers and dances to her death, and I realize this is the translation from the original story, but our girls didn't understand why or how this happened. Otherwise, it is a fantastic, gripping read!

Paul Heins's graceful words and Trina Schart Hyman's expressive artwork create a dramatic retelling of this classic tale, filled with movement and passion that will enchant readers of all ages.

SarahKate's Notes:

I love books about witches and this is one of the best for small children. A *very* friendly witch gets on the bus and begins to sing... We read this one over and over and over.
