Featuring some key elements from Snow White and Sleeping Beauty, he takes the readers on a journey where there just might not be the typical fairy tale ending with a knight in shining armor. Featuring Chris Riddell's black and white illustrations with gold highlights complement the traditional fairy tale themes very well.
