Description
Enter a world in which magic exists, hope wins, and every woman's heart is alive with courage!
This global feast of ancient tales features valiant women overcoming every kind of obstacle and danger to fulfil their destinies. Travel through Africa, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, North America, and the Pacific. Shudder, cheer, and laugh out loud as the heroines deal with trolls, faeries, dragons, and ghosts; admire their knowledge, wit, and cunning; marvel at shapeshifting and other manifestations of the supernatural.
A rich collection of fairy tales, beautifully illustrated throughout with Joe McClaren woodcuts, Dark Fairy Tales of Fearless Women is stitched together like a series of Scheherazade stories. It is storytelling at its best, pitch-perfect fairy tales of fearless women for readers everywhere.
