Description
Neil Gaiman takes the characters and scenes from popular fairy tales to create his own dark, twisted tale. 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.
