Snow White and the Seven Bears A new fabulously funny twist on the classic children’s story – beautifully illustrated t...

When a young Snow White misplaces her beloved teddy, she cleverly enlists her magic mirror for a search-and-rescue mission through the forest. This charming fractured fairy tale cleverly reimagines the classic character not as a princess in peril, but as a determined little girl on a quest, encountering a series of hilariously unhelpful real bears along the way. The narrative is propelled by a gentle, repetitive structure that builds anticipation, while the playful interactions between Snow White and the boisterous bears provide ample humor and warmth. It’s a wonderfully accessible introduction to fairy tale tropes for the preschool set, turning a familiar story into a fresh, relatable adventure about losing—and hopefully finding—a favorite comfort object.

Michael Rosen’s signature rhythmic language makes this an absolute joy to read aloud, with phrases that children will eagerly anticipate and chant along with during each forest encounter. The true brilliance lies in how the story validates a child's deep attachment to a special stuffed animal, making Snow White’s mission feel both epic and deeply personal. Young listeners who have ever frantically searched for a lost lovey will connect instantly, finding both suspense and comfort in the hunt. This tale ultimately delivers a satisfying blend of gentle comedy and heartfelt reassurance, celebrating friendship and perseverance in a way that will have kids asking for just one more read.
