Beasts and Beauty, by Soman Chainani (Hansel and Gretel)
Each Friday that school is in session, I share the link to a read-aloud preview of a book from SRCSA library. The “First-chapter Friday” selection for Oct. 25, 2024 is Beasts and Beauty, by Soman Chainani.
New York Times bestselling author Soman Chainani respins old stories into fresh fairy tales for a new era and creates a world like no other. These stories know you. They understand you. They reflect you. They are tales for our times. So read on, if you dare. Beasts and Beauty was the winner, in 2022, of the Kids’ Book Choice Award, in the “Favorite Book Cover” category (voted on by readers ages 12 to 14). Today’s selection is from “Hansel and Gretel.”
