I really enjoyed ‘The Sleeper and the Spindle’. The way the words and the drawings seemed to merge together was almost magical. Even though the book is very simple in a lot of ways,  it’s also really complex in the way it’s written. It’s like starring at your reflection in a mirror when really you should be looking behind the glass. The book is a twist on the traditional stories of Snow White and Sleeping Beauty. I would recommend this book to anyone who is above the age of 7, as younger readers may enjoy the book but it would probably scare them.

Not only do the pictures take you another world but the text is inspirational as well. I’m not sure whether this is because of its countless twists and turns, that after reading it you can’t imagine the book without,  or because it’s just pure genius. If I was to give this book a rating it would be ten out of ten. I think this book is a must read to all. If you haven’t already –  pick up the book and start reading now!
