Have you ever wondered why Jack and Jill needed that pail of water
in the first place? Or how Sleeping Beauty managed to prick her finger
despite a royal order to destroy every spindle in the kingdom?
Fairy tales and nursery rhymes have given us some
of the most iconic characters and images in storytelling:
think Cinderella's glass slipper or Jack's oversized beanstalk.
But what about the in-between moments -
the ones that never made the page?
In her new book,
The Witch's Apprentice and Other Stories,
award-winning author Etka R. Garg
explores the untold scenes between
the lines of some of our most loved tales.
