Fairest of all is the story of Snow White narrated from the Queen's perspective. It tells us how the Queen turned wicked. It's a heart-wrenching story of love and loss.


“I cannot live in fear of losing him, for fear of not living my life at all" is an extract from the book that explains to us that if we constantly live in the fear of losing what we love then we shall never be able to lead a happy life or take joy at the moment. 


This book does not tell the story of how Snow White suffered but the story of the Queen from the day she married the king to the last day of her life.


It also takes you on a journey that leads to all the events that took place to make the Queen want to kill Snow White. 


This book is for you if you are a fan of Disney or want to read stories from a different point of view.
