Very short

Short story about three sisters. The 12 year old twins seem spoiled. The villain is an ancient sorcerer who wants to marry the girls…mentions kissing them. Gives me the creeps especially since the first sister even tells him she’s only 12. I’m not certain why the story has this aspect in it but I won’t recommend this book.

Short, but...short

A banal tale, the story lacks for a good ending. It just ends. There are many possibilities but none are explored. The Narrator, however, has a pleasant with excellent enunciation.

3 Billy Goats Gruff- but with 3 girls

In the style of Grimm’s Fairy tale, each of three girls faces the bride-mad sorcerer. The violence is abrupt. The challenges make no sense. The magic is unexplained. This was an expertly narrated outline.
