Synopsis
A determined girl gives up on kissing a frog. A fearless heroine comes face-to-face with a not-so Big Bad Wolf.
A monstrous princess, held captive on a deserted island, yearns to break free.
Within this book are seven famous fairy tales turned into enchanting, inspiring and sometimes hair-raising stories for today's world, about girls with their own dreams and desires.
These are no damsels in distress, but real young women of flesh and blood - who certainly don't need rescuing.
