Book Description:
Did
Cinderella live happily ever after? You might think so until you look more closely at the hidden messages in beloved fairy tales. In this book, fairy tales are analyzed in terms of the underlying messages about marriage, agency, power, suffering, and good versus evil, with a focus on how male and female characters differ in each of these areas. The analysis is a data-driven approach that provides clear evidence for the hidden messages in these beloved tales. The end conclusion is not whether fairy tales are good or bad but rather what messages they deliver about life, even if unintentionally.
I rated this book 5 *****'s
Cinderella is always my favorite fairy tale Princess
I didn't grow up reading any Princess books back in the Philippines when I was a little girl until I had my daughter almost 16 years ago. Cinderella is always my favorite fairy tale Princess until now. I adore how humble she is despite being treated poorly by her step sisters.
This book opens my mind and gets to learn more about my favorite fairy tale Princess Cinderella it is. This book is very entertaining and what a fantastic read. It tackles real scenarios which will blow your mind away. Secrets are all discovered and when you think of it, it's like a corn maze that wants you to get out and be free.
Life is not always a ray of sunshine and that is why this book is a must to read to reflect what real life is all about. Cinderella is still my favorite fairy tale Princess but I would be a feisty one if I were her.
