Review
This is a handsome piece... Sanderson's princesses are approachable-their youthful vitality in face and movement contrasts effectively with the rich period costumes... --Booklist
Sanderson's stately composition and sure hand with face and figure...create scenes so real that viewers begin to wonder why they are unable to hear the music and laughter. --School Library Journal
Sanderson's retelling of this classic tale from the Brothers Grimm is enthralling, and the muted elegance of her oil paintings captures the romance and magic of this well-known fairy tale. --Language Arts
The illustrations capture the story's magic and romance... --Publishers Weekly
