Snow White By Brothers Grimm Illustrations By Camille Rose Garcia REVIEW

“Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who’s the fairest one of all?”
Originating in seventeenth-century French folklore, the story of Snow White has long been one of the world’s most memorable childhood tales.
It is the story of an evil queen determined to do away with a girl—with skin as white as snow, lips as red as blood, and hair as black as ebony—who threatens the queen’s quest to remain the most beautiful in her kingdom. This new gift edition presents the unabridged version of the Grimms’ tale, with an original interpretation by renowned artist Camille Rose Garcia that artfully combines wit and dark romance.
Pages: Hard cover 80


First off, Wow the art work!! I will add more pictures to show just how amazing it really is!
 Well I was definitely the kid that saw Disney, grew up with Disney so clearly had no idea what I was in for. I saw the book and fell head over heels in love with the illustrators talent and take on the pictures. Then i drove in and read it. There was a few oh wow's and such that went along with the read. But all in all I loved it. It was fantastic, but I'm also a total sucker for fairy tales. I enjoyed the twists of the story from what I grew up with.

Rating: 4.8 out of 5
