Snow-White and the Seven Dwarfs: A Tale from the Brothers Grimm
Translated by Randall Jarrell
Pictures by Nancy Ekholm Burkert

This version of the Fairytale Snow White is very similar to the other one that I read. It is still the same story about Snow White being sent way by her evil stepmother and finding the seven dwarfs to live with. At the end of the story, the Queen dies because the dwarfs heat her shoes on hot coals and then when the evil Queen puts them on, she burns herself to death. This allows Snow White to live the rest of her life free of the evil queen.
Personal Rating= 5
This story was done differently than the other version of Snow White that I read but I like it just as much as the other one. This version tends to be more traditional and formal. The pictures in the story are not as animated as the ones in the other version. I thought the book was great and would recommend it to others to read.
