The Sleeper and the Spindle
by Neil Gaiman
Gorgeous book. Breath-taking illustrations. And beautifully re-told mixing of Snow White (the all grown up version) and Sleeping Beauty (with a little twist). I loved the re-arrangement of the sleeping witch vs the birthday princess turned old lady. An old lady that saves the day. The power of names - no names are every revealed here, actually - a nod to old magic, and very cool. And really the ending. Just the perfect way to end a fairy tale...by not ending it at all. A young girl choosing to head to the east, away from home, towards another adventure. And one more time: those illustrations were on point.
