Synopsis

There is simply no more beloved fable in the Grimm Brothers' canon than the story of "Snow White" - and no fresher retelling than this sublimely illustrated new version from Camille Rose Garcia, the innovative artist whose unique, edgy vision enlivened the "New York Times" bestseller "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland". Garcia lets her imagination fly once again with this iconic tale of an evil queen, a charming prince, and a runaway princess seeking shelter and safety with seven little men. With not one but two new Hollywood versions of the treasured fairy tale in the offing - the first starring Julia Roberts, Armie Hammer, and Lily Collins, and a second, "Snow White and the Huntsman", featuring Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron, Chris Hemsworth, and Nathan Lane - the timing could not be more perfect for a new literary Snow White to arise, awakened from an ageless sleep to live happily ever after once again.

About this title

Review:

This is a quote. (Amanda Smith)

From the Back Cover:

“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.
