Don't you just love that gorgeous cover?

I love fairy tale retellings, and this one would go well with the fairy tale challenges that I am doing this year!

  1. I love remakes of fairytales! I've read a couple of Cameron Dokey's re-tellings, but I don't think they were any of the ones in this bind-up. Thanks for sharing!
