We need more inclusive fairytales
It's been a long time since I read a fairytale like this. One that has a beautiful moral to the tale. One that is suitable and impactful to both children and adults alike- and never one that was so inclusive.
I look forward to reading this book, a chapter at a time, with my child as a bedtime story. Sir Violet is an amazing and reluctant protagonist. Holly and Juniper are the sweetest couple and Snap is a wonderful example of what you can discover when you look beyond the mask.
