This book has a quality setting. It was originally from The Brothers Grimm. The pictures are beautiful watercolors. The witch looks dreadful. The characters are typical for a fairy tale about good verses evil. There are good descriptions of how ugly the witch was. The theme is love overcomes evil. I thought the plot could have been more developed.The flower dream was a little too easy for the conflict to resolve. He won over the witch fairly swiftly. It is a fairy tale after all.
I will not read the whole book to the class. I would use the setting as an example to show how a good setting has vivid imagery and sets the stage. In the classroom, I would copy the page where the setting is well written and have the students develop their own fairy tale ending. The character descriptions are also good examples. I would pull the descriptions out to show students how to develop characters. Then I would have them develop thier own fairy tale characters by first drawing a picture then use adjectives to describe them.
