Abstract

"Snow White's Seven Patches: A Vitiligo Fairy Tale is a modern-day story with the classical theme of good conquering evil. You'll find the age-old ingredients of a magic mirror, poisonous apple, dwarfs, and romance here. However, this adaptation includes a vain mother who's so clouded by beauty myths that she keeps her own daughter a secret while plagiarizing the workings of her mind. Everything falls apart when the good mirror finally speaks the truth.


*Young readers with vitiligo will look at their own skin patches with a unique lens, finding interesting shapes and stories behind each puffy cloud of white.
*Readers will be introduced to the firsthand hurt that plagiarism can cause through Snow White's experience.
*The loving dwarf family illustrates that helping people in need should be a priority in life.
*Readers learn that not all princesses look alike.
*The concept of "beauty is within the eye of the beholder" is exemplified by the prince and magic mirror." (Amazon)
