This book took a darker spin on the traditional literature book Snow White. I did not like it too much. I did not enjoy the illustrations in the book as well as the language used throughout the story. That being said, the story is a good one that can teach kids valuable lessons. For instance, it is not safe to talk to strangers. Another one is that real beauty comes from within. Lastly, the story can teach children that it is wonderful to have friends and to be accepting of differences. All of these messages is why I still liked the book, however, I would recommend parents to find a better version of the book. ( )

Pretty but confusing retelling of Snow White. Snow White has zero backstory, and can mysteriously make flowers and fruit grow in the winter. The Sven Dwarves greet her joyfully, having apparently dreamed about guarding her, which is news to the reader. Why did they dream about her? Who knows. ( )
