La Princesa drac di David Wiesner
Wicked stepmother casts a spell on the fair princess, turning her into a dragon. The spell will only be broken when her brother the prince kisses her three times.
The Loathesome Dragon is a story that follows a similar tale of Cinderella. After the death of the Queen, the King remarries a woman that is jealous of of the Kind's daughter so she turns her into a dragon that can only be changed back by 3 kisses from her brother. This is a twist on traditional fairytales and would be story to be used for a compare and contrast between fairytales as it gives a spin on the classics. There is magic and beautiful illustrations that grab the readers attention as they read!… (altro)
This book takes on the traditional role of a fairy tale. The story is told in paragraph form. Every element of this book is very traditional of the fairy tales I remember reading as a young child, from the language to the illustrations. The illustrations are very large, but not very bright. They almost remind me of old paintings with their pale colors.
The Loathsome Dragon is retold by Kim Kahng and David Wiesner. It includes many traditional fairy tale elements such as magic and things happening in 3's. I was reminded of Cinderella when reading about the stepmother. I appreciated the importance of family in solving the problem in this story. I liked the story overall, but would have loved more rich language. I am a fan of David Wiesner's art, which is what drew me to this book. His style of watercolor art and attention to detail help show the story beautifully.… (altro)
