Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Fairy Tales As Told by Clementine Set 2
JENNA. MUELLER · 2023
72/100
👍 Worth It
A dachshund narrating Snow White through a dog-centric lens — with seven dogs replacing the seven dwarfs — is the kind of genuinely funny concept that makes young readers want to keep going. The ABDO/Magic Wagon educational pedigree means these are curriculum-aligned and classroom-tested, which counts for early reader picks. The set doesn't break new ground beyond its clever framing device, but for the 5–8 crowd it delivers exactly what it promises.
