About this ebook
Prominent feminist author Barbara Walker has revamped, retold, and infused with life some of your favorite classic fairy tales. No longer are women submissive, helpless creatures in need of redemption through the princely male! Instead they are vibrantly alive, strong women who take fate into their own hands.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Thoroughly enjoyed these stories and the socially conscious twist. Imagine how life would have been if we grew up with these instead of the usual tales which don't do much for girls/women.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Feminism shoved down ones throat unfortunately. I'd hoped this would be a different style of fairy tales I could read to our son and daughter-
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Too heavy handed on the feminist aspects.
