Snow White Gets Her Say

by chris wind

Overview

A collection of the classic fairy tales retold - what would have happened if Gretel, Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and others had been strong and critical girls and women living today?

A feminist revision of the standards.

(Not for children.)

"The voices you catch out of the old fairy tales are very impressive. I got quite attached to them." Fiddlehead "So I didn't know what to expect when I read this ... it was a fast read (not sure it took me an hour ) ... laughed a lot (and sitting on a plane that made for some interesting looks) and when i finished ... the only thing i could think of is ... why isn't anyone doing this on stage ..." szferris, Librarything "I loved the sassy voices in these stories, and the humor, even when making hard points." PJ O'Brien, 5/5, Smashwords
