Mirror, Mirror

Cartea autorului Nancy Butcher „Mirror, Mirror" de la editura USBORNE

When Queen Veda sets up the Queen’s Academy for Girls, the pretty students happily accept a wonder beauty pill, but Princess Ana is suspicious. She has always had to hide her good looks to keep her mothers affection. So why is the queen suddenly promoting beauty? As a sinister illness sweeps the school, Ana must confront the truth to save her friends. Queen Veda is the most beautiful woman in the kingdom and thats the way she wants it to stay. So when she sends all the girls of the realm to a new academy and offers them a beauty wonder pill, her daughter Princess Ana is suspicious. Echoes of the classic fairy tale Snow White are skillfully entwined with contemporary notions of beauty, acceptance and body-image. A lyrical and absorbing tale that resonates strongly in todays looks-obsessed world.
