Encouraging our daughter is an important part of raising her to be a confident and courageous young woman. This retelling of old classic fairy tales removes the homogeneous characters and patriarchal messages and replaces them with exciting adventures and inspiring characters. Girls no longer have to wait for a hero to save them, but can find the most unlikely heroes within themselves.
About the Publisher / Author / Illustrator
Not long ago, in a city you've probably heard of and maybe even been to, you noticed a soon-to-be middle-aged bald father lying in bed reading bedtime stories to his young daughter , something strange. It seemed that all the princesses in these fairy tales needed to be saved and that their most important quality was their beauty.
He didn't like that at all. He didn't want his daughter to grow up in a world like that. So as he read, he started changing little words here and there. Suddenly a "beautiful" princess became a "brave" one, and he saw the sparkle in his daughter's eyes!
This is where the idea for Fairy Tales Retold came from, with a simple but effective premise:
Changing one word can change everything!
