Review: Snow White in New York

Snow White in New York Snow White in New York by Fiona French
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book would be a good candidate for inclusion in an upper grades unit on multiple versions of classic stories / fairy tales. It really only works if students are already familiar with the classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, which cannot necessarily be assumed nowadays. Good illustrations. I would find it interesting to have students analyze what parts of the classic story work and don't work in a more modern setting. What has been left out? What has been added? Why?
