With a huge online following, her words have entranced hearts and minds all over the world.
About the Author: Nikita Gill is a British-Indian writer and poet living in the south of England.
Complete with beautifully hand-drawn illustrations by Gill herself, Fierce Fairytales is an empowering collection of Poems and Stories for a new generation.
You will meet fearless princesses, a new kind of wolf lurking in the concrete jungle, and an independent Gretel who can bring down monsters on her own.
Instead, lines blur between heroes and villains.
In this book, gone are the docile women and male saviors.
Through her gorgeous reimagining of fairytale classics and spellbinding original tales, she dismantles the old-fashioned tropes that have been ingrained in our minds.
But in this rousing new prose and poetry collection, Nikita Gill gives Once Upon a Time a much-needed modern makeover.
Traditional fairytales are rife with cliches and gender stereotypes: beautiful, silent princesses; ugly, jealous, and bitter villainesses; girls who need rescuing; and men who take all the glory.
