Snow White: Illustrated Reinterpretation by Jana Haitarova (Illustrator & Author), Jacob Grimm (Author), Wilhelm Grimm (Author) uses a lightly modified version of Margaret Hunt's English translation of the Grimms' tale juxtaposed against illustrations that tell a parallel story. I recently discovered this newly published book and although I haven't seen the full book yet, what I have seen is very compelling and already qualifies as a favorite rendition of the tale for me. The dwarves are game pieces and a doll house is included, too. I'm sharing just a few of the 44 illustrations below.

Book description from the publisher:

A perfect addition to any collection for readers who appreciate timeless stories reimagined with emotional and artistic insight.
