This has to be the most unique, take on sleeping Beauty, while still staying true to the story. And the illustrations are fantastic. Part of it makes me think at Stardust, while the other brings Disney to mind. But this is entirely it‘s own lovely and spectacular work.

Beauty and the Beast was Mayer's masterpiece but his Sleeping Beauty is still lovely.

Also, in the Mayer Sleeping Beauty, Jareth is totally Sleeping Beauty's dad. Also, @freyaheart it does the weird image compression thing if I save directly to my phone but not if I save on a PC, upload to Google photos, the download from Google photos to my device. This is a weird-compressed one but look at the others I just posted.

readordierachel I would totally read that retelling. 7y
