Waterstones Says

From the author of Fantastically Great Women Who Changed the World comes a handsome volume of subversive fairy tales where the female lead calls the shots. Largely neglected or forgotten through the centuries, these stories, fully and vibrantly illustrated, feature inspirational women taking charge of their own destinies and proving that you don’t have to male to win the day.

Once known, now largely forgotten, these empowering fairy tales have been brought together to inspire a new generation of readers.

Discover heroines who outwit giants, fight evil, awaken sleeping princes and, of course, live happily ever after. With a foreword by Kate Pankhurst, author of Fantastically Great Women who Changed the World.

MEDIA REVIEWS
This book, telling us stories almost lost to history, is so exciting and so very different to the versions of the fairy tales available when I was young. Children from 4 upwards will lap up these female-focussed tales of derring do, cunning and magic, with no a Prince Charming in sight. Inspirational, intriguing, and starring the feisty girls that time forgot. A fabulously illustrated collection of eight forgotten fairy tales featuring girl who step outside their traditional roles, make their own decisions and empower themselves.

“Discover Some Old Favourites In This Beautiful Tome”

What I loved about this was going down memory lane with the older classics that I read when I was little like Snow White and Rose Red and Clever Molly, and new ones I didn't know:
