I think that young girls would love this book! It is about letters back and forth between Cinderella and Snow White. They each end up with a happy ever after ending. I also like how the author overlaps their lives together. It creates a different view for the reader. ( )

Die-hard fans of everything pink will probably enjoy this story told through letters exchanged between Snow White and Cinderella, but everyone else will be gagging from the syrupy overload. Illustrations are loosely based on the Disneyesque versions of these princesses, but to give the Disney Princess franchise credit, the two heroines have never looked quite as vapid and ditzy as they do in Julie Olson's illustrations. There is no message of empowerment; the letters are all about finding that perfect prince to escape wicked stepmothers and live happily ever after.
