These are poems about different fairy tales, often told from the perspective of someone who usually doesn't tell each tale. There's a lot of focus on flesh, but not much new perspective to each tale. I wanted her to take the implications of the tales a bit farther.

The author has taken 12 well known fairy tales (Cinderella, Snow White ...)and given them back in verse. Each is accompanied by a black & white pencil or pen & ink drawing.
