For a slightly older audience than the Far Out series, and with enriching back matter that's a little different. I think I prefer the other series overall, but we'll see as I read more of them.

And btw, yes, migraines can turn even the best of us into witches. Sorry.

Probably the best telling of a Snow White story I have had yet! These Fractured Fairy Tales are awesome :)

Serious story that borrows elements from Snow White. Entertaining.

Not your standard fairy tale. Geared toward tweens and discusses empathy. Has a blind character.
