Luisa's version is less bloodthirsty metaphor for the female sexual coming-of-age (of course) and more just bloodthirsty. The axe scene is re-enacted repeatedly and lovingly, although now tht I think about it that may be more about tickles.

Yet another read for my English classes! Reading classic fairy tales makes reading and watching the new adaptions way more interesting.

A dreamy painterly retelling, with clever use of fonts, abstract ideas and watercolour imagery.
