A&U acquires ‘Four Fairytales for Feisty Girls’

Allen & Unwin is delighted to announce that they have acquired Susannah McFarlane’s Four Fairytales for Feisty Girls and will publish in September 2018.

Princesses can rescue themselves—just ask Cinderella, Rapunzel, Little Red Riding Hood and Snow White! They may get themselves into some tricky situations but life is all about the recovery and these girls can use their talents and STEM skills to get themselves out again—prince or no prince!

Featuring a 128-page, hardcover design with glorious full-colour illustrations by Beth Norling, Lucinda Gifford, Claire Robertson and Sher Rill Ng, Four Fairytales for Feisty Girls will be the must-have bedtime book for Christmas 2018.

Publisher Eva Mills described the book as ‘a beautiful selection of favourite fairytales, retold by an author who believes passionately in inspiring young girls through the power of words and stories’. Susannah McFarlane’s ‘EJ Girl Hero’ series has sold over 1 million copies, and sparked the development of the Girl Hero project: www.girlheroproject.com.
