Reading Notes: Europa's Fairy Book



(Image sourced from link)


For my extra reading this week I decided to read Europa's Fairy Book. I came to this decision because I wanted to do something out of the Europe unit and still delve into fairytales.

I really enjoyed the Cinder-Maid story the most out of Part A. I have read many versions of cinderella as my mother was a librarian all throughout my childhood, but this version I had never come across. I like the added details of the mist, honey, tar, and the shaking of the tree.

I enjoyed the other stories as well such as the Talking of Animals. The plotline of that story thoroughly intrigued me and I think that could be a fun one to remake and make it my own.
