DISNEY TWISTED TALES!
Review by Gav
My first Disney Twisted Tales book and I thoroughly enjoyed it!
In this, we follow the well-known Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs story from the original 1937 animated classic - but with several deviations. Firstly, Snow is 17 in this, and she is way more three-dimensional. The Evil Queen receives a name and a backstory, as did the Magic Mirror. One of the things I loved about this is the story behind the Magic Mirror and its influence.
Even though I thought this was too easily wrapped up, it was a good twist on the tale and it pleasantly surprised me. I can’t wait to read more Disney Twisted Tales now!
What if the Evil Queen poisoned the prince?
Following her beloved mother's death, the kingdom falls into the hands of Snow White's stepmother, commonly referred to as "the Evil Queen" by those she rules. Snow keeps her head down at the castle, hoping to make the best of her situation.
But when new information about her parents resurfaces and a plot to kill her goes haywire, everything changes for Snow. With the help of a group of wary dwarfs, a kind prince she thought she'd never see again, and a mysterious stranger from her past, Snow embarks on a quest to stop the Evil Queen and take back her kingdom. But can she stop an enemy who knows her every move and will stop at nothing to retain her power... including going after the ones Snow loves?
