Many years ago, a lovely queen and a kindly king were blessed with a little girl. They named her Snow White, for her skin was white as snow, her hair was as black as ebony wood, and her little lips were as red as blood. Happy years followed until the queen did not recover from an illness. Years later, the king took another queen, with hopes that she would be a good mother to Snow White, but she was jealous and of bad character. Snow White was driven from her home and left in the deep forest, fending for herself. Fortunately, she met seven kind–hearted forest dwarfs. They welcomed her in their quaint, cozy home. However, after some time had passed, the jealous queen hashed a most wicked plan to have Snow White gone, this time, for good. Yet her wicked plan did not succeed. Instead, she was eaten up by her own rage and anger, never to be seen again.The story has a most happy, truly magical conclusion, with much celebrating and bliss for everyone, for all the years that followed.Gabriele has a unique ability to create magic. Her classic retelling of Snow White's story is written with so much insight and love. In addition, the language is "mom–and–kid friendly," omitting many of the cruel words yet still staying true to the original story. This book is beautifully illustrated to gently draw you into the magic of the story. Just like de Ginant's other books, this book tugs at my heart strings… Well done again!-Eve Jacobson, ArtistOther titles available from Gabriele Rose de Ginant:My CamelotRosabellaSnow Flower or Fleur de NeigeSigned and numbered limited prints available.
