Review:

This was a sweet little book.

I generally quite like both fairytales and retellings of them, and I ended up really enjoying this one. The book is a mix of different types of poetry, so we've got shorter, more traditional styles mixed with longer, more modern pieces, which border on being short stories. I quite enjoyed both.

There are also beautiful illustrations scattered throughout this that I loved and I felt like that added something a little extra special to this.

I do think what we get in here varies a little bit in quality, as it usually does with most collections like this, and I think it gets a little bit repetitive sometimes. Perhaps it would have benefited from being edited a bit more heavily.

Either way though, this was enjoyable and magical and well worth the read.
