Description
Return to a Once Upon a Time where anything is possible . . . Rumaysa: Ever After is the enchanting sequel to Radiya Hafiza's Rumaysa: A Fairytale – a gorgeously empowering and funny story that spins the classic fairytale to show that anyone can be a hero.
Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's the fiercest one of all?
Ever since she escaped her tower, Rumaysa has been searching the land, far and wide, determined to find her long lost parents. But after she receives a mysterious invitation from Saira White, Queen of Bishnara, she is soon pulled into a dark, magical adventure, that threatens her own happily ever after . . .
This eagerly anticipated sequel enchantingly intertwines traditional stories of Princesses, Princes, Witches and Beasts with a fresh and empowering perspective, beautifully illustrated by Rhaida El Touny.

This new take on famous fairytales weaves in diverse cultures and content that you wont find in an all-white disney cartoon cast. The second book in a series, Rumaysa: Ever After continues the story of a girl on a magic adventure after accepting an invitation from the Queen (a take on Snowhite). Challenging the fairytale "rules" of things like damsel in distress, this book is all for empowering young women to take charge!
Short chapters with black and white illustrations intermixed help tell the enchanting story. The book is fairly long, at over 200 pages, so it is good for young readers who are ready for longer texts and less pictures. I would recommend this book to parents and teachers of children in the age 7-12 range. Thanks so much to netgalley and the publisher for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book!
