Girls

by Annet Schaap & translated by Laura Watkinson

Now in English: retellings of seven classic fairy tales by one of the Netherlands’ most original contemporary writers. These stories are true to life: the girls in them have agency, and there is no ‘happily ever after’. Witty, dark and imaginative, these tales form a fabulous collection. With black and white illustrations by the author.

Ages 9-12, and parents will enjoy it too
