I love a fun, modern twist on fairy tales, so this addition to the Snow White lore was a lovely surprise!

Snow White doesn't have dwarves in this sci-fin inspired tale, she has robots! Score 1 for STEM lovers everywhere! Instead of an Evil Queen, there's a wicked Star Queen (who looks wickedly cool in all of the best yet evil ways!). Star Queen wants Snow White out of the way so she can be the best overall! Also, Prince Cosmo!

This is a cute little story of friendship and robots. It's definitely a fun twist on the typical tale and would be a great addition to a little friend's bookshelf. The fact that Snow White can take care of herself quite well is nice - there's no crazy true love kisses, but there is lots of engineering. The story is overall quite positive and very smart.

I did really enjoy the pictures and art. I think that's the strong point of this story. It felt very magical and full of whimsy.

I found this Twisted Fairy Tale wasn't as easy to follow as the other tales. Perhaps I just didn't enjoy this version as much. Each story is going to hit well with different audiences. In all honesty, I can't point out a bad thing about it. Maybe I've just read too many Snow White stories.

Three out of five stars.

Thank you NetGalley and Arcturus Publishing for this wonderful opportunity to pick up this book! ( )

Snow White and the Seven Robots is yet another fractured fairy tale.
The wicked Star Queen still wants to be the fairest of them all. But still, she is not. The vain Queen spends too much time on social media. Spacebook makes her even more jealous of everyone but especially that “stupid Snow White” who has never done anything for anybody.

So the Star Queen shipwrecks Snow White, on a remote forest planet. This hardly slows down the plucky princess. She uses her engineering know-how to rebuild her ruined spacecraft into robot helpers! And there are of course seven of them all cleverly named.

Question is: Can she and her mechanical friends find a way to defeat the Star Queen once and for all?

I found the story choppy, yet I think children of the 21st century will enjoy the modern day, technology infused take on a favorite fairy tale ( )
