Join me February 9-14 as we celebrate all things fairy tale related! As usual, I will provide a party tag, a giveaway with themed prizes, and some party games. I also plan to do at least one post on my book blog, The Edge of the Precipice.
Everything else is up to you! And you can start by nabbing one of these party buttons and displaying it on your own blog with a link back to this post so others can join the fun.
The one real rule is that, since this is a party and open to people of all ages, your posts must be:
- celebratory (no fairy tale bashing!)
- appropriate for all ages
That does NOT mean you can't be critical of things within a movie or book you're reviewing. It also doesn't mean you can only review G-rated movies or books. It just means your posts should overall be positive about fairy tales and be appropriate for readers of all ages.
That means you don't absolutely have to sign up ahead of time for this party. However, it's always nice to have an idea of how many people will be participating. So if you do know you want to attend this party and have an idea of what you plan to contribute, let me know in a comment and I'll add you to the roster!

ReplyDeleteIvy Miranda, is that the 1994 animated Swan Princess?
DeleteGlad to have you!
Yes that's the one
DeleteThanks, Ivy Miranda!
DeleteI'm SO excited for this as fairytales are my kryptonite. ^_^ I'm sure I'll come up with more ideas, but for now I'd like to review Jack the Giant Slayer (2013)!
ReplyDeleteChloe, I LOVE that movie. So funny! So wry! My daughter nearly named her new hamster Elmont :-D
DeleteElmont is my favorite character so that's perfect for a hamster! I love it! XD
DeleteNot sure what I'll post yet, but I'd love to join! I think I'll do either a review of Disney's Descendants trilogy, a review of the animated Tinkerbell film series, or a review of the Rise of the Guardians film.
ReplyDeleteHopeful Pen, oooh, those all sound great! Have fun deciding :-)
DeleteThank you!
DeleteAlso, my "With Joy" blog is the one I'll be joining the challenge with. :)
I would love to join! I’m thinking of talking about a fairytale called The Handless Maiden, but we shall see :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to it!
I definitely will join in. I'm going to gush about my favorite fairytale retellings though it will not be a long list since I'm a bit picky. Thanks for hosting.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day.
