Never has a book been so beautiful, and so frightening.
Through the Woods was not what I had expected. I quickly regretted starting to read just before bed. I finished the first short story and felt like it ended too soon. But I kept on reading.
It wasn’t what I thought it would be. I did not expect the illustrations to be quite so amazing. To be honest, it’s part of what kept me reading.
And snippets like these don’t do it justice. Holding the book in your hand – you see how quite how amazing.
Now, I’m fan of fairy tales, fables, and myths. I never really occurred to me that I could write my own. But that is what Emily Carroll has done. You’ll finish and want to flip back to the beginning.
