[Janis · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a book I found at our library with beautiful pictures of our 3 favorite princesses--Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White. What the arranger/compiler did was find artwork from the past 150 years or so depicting these stories and also researched each story's origins and (briefly) how they evolved. I loved the artwork more than anything. Great compilation.

This was a short and easy read with heavily illustrated pages. I loved the brief history of each story.

''The story of three girls supernaturally involved in becoming princesses are, in fact, one and the same story- a story that clearly represents to us that evil absolutely cannot destroy what is real & good.''-Cooper Edens
