Renowned painter Pamela Silin-Palmer follows up
her last picture book, Bunny and the Beast, with another delightfully
tongue-in-cheek retelling of a favorite fairy tale. In collaberation with her
daughter, writer Emily Snowell Keller, the artist has added a twist to a classic
story--recasting the characters as animals and dressing them in medieval
finery--while retaining all of the essential elements. In this "Sleeping
Beauty," Beauty becomes Bunny, the fairies are a rainbow of winged piglets, and
the prince is a glorious hare in golden armor. Each spread offers lush imagery,
exquisite detail, and an abundance of humor, creating a book to be thoroughly
enjoyed by readers of all ages for years to come! |
