Description

Celebrate Halloween and the spooky season with this subversive, funny - and deliciously prickly! - tale for the young reader looking for a book with bite. Written in verse by former Waterstones Children's Laureate Joseph Coelho and illustrated by Freya Hartas. Eshe and her twelve sisters are Fairy Godmothers, honoured for the incredible gifts they can bestow. But Eshe's special abilities are a little different - she can glimpse into the future! And, one day, Eshe foresees something terrifying: a world blanketed in creeping vines and a girl covered in thorns. Eshe needs to stop her vision becoming true, but it will require old and powerful magic. And she won't be able to do it alone... Following on from Zombierella and Frankenstiltskin, this is the third and final book in a deliciously dark trilogy of twisted classics, written in verse by the winner of the Yoto Carnegie Medal for Writing Joseph Coelho and illustrated by Freya Hartas. "This twist on Sleeping Beauty is absorbing, original and deliciously magical." BookTrust
