Reviews / Votes
A fractured fairy tale STEM adventure series, which is particularly empowering for young girls. * The Kids Book Curator * What sets this book apart is its empowering twist on traditional fairy tales. Instead of waiting for a prince, characters work together, problem-solve, and use creativity over magic spells. The result is a playful yet inspiring read that fits beautifully in a classroom library, school curriculum, or weekend activity stack for Key Stage 1 and lower Key Stage 2 readers. * Just Imagine *More details
