Hi kids! Ms. Booksy here with Chapter 8 of Snow White!
At the end of Chapter 7, the evil Queen had just followed the Huntsman into Grimm Forest and saw THIS!
So now the Queen totally knows Snow White is alive and well and very much not a frog!
Not good!
The Queen watched as Snow White and the Huntsman talked and laughed.
That rotten huntsman was supposed to get rid of her!
He was supposed to take her to the wicked wizard and have her turned into a frog!
How hard is that??
Well, thanks for stopping by!
Sure thing! Need anything special for next time?
Yes, Snacky asked if you could bring him some marshmallows and graham crackers.
We’re gonna make s’mores!
Awesome! Will do. Bye, Snow White
Bye, Shep! And please be careful. If the Queen finds out, she'll be very angry and we’re done for.
Yes...that would be bad, wouldn’t it, Princess?
The Queen rushed over to the Witch’s shop and barged right in.
Hey! Ever hear of knocking?
This is an emergency! I need something...something
EEEVIL!
Eh, alright...
The next day Snow White had just finished her chores
when a little old woman popped out of nowhere and said...
Yoohoo, m’lady!
I am but a poor peddler woman, selling shoes door-to-door.
Shoes?? Oh... I don't have much money.
They’re on sale! They’re sooo pretty and just your size.
You deserve a treat!
Well, I guess I could just take a look…
Try them on!
SNOW WHITE: These are beautiful!
I don’t think I can afford them.
No! They're free!
He he he he he!
Free??
Why??
MS. BOOKSY: Snow White started to go after the old woman to insist on paying her, only to realize—
I'm stuck!
What? No! No!
I’m turning into stone! Why??
Help! Help! Heee—
MS. BOOKSY: Oh no!
Snow White had become a statue from head to toe!
She didn’t even know what you and I know—
that the old woman had really been...
the Evil Queen!
Goodbye forever, Snow White! Ha ha ha ha!
The Queen went back to her kingdom, happy to be rid of Snow White.
She marched straight to the Magic Mirror.
Question. Why did you say I was the most awesome person in all the land
when we both know you favor Snow White?
But...Snow White is gone, my Queen!
She is now. But since you are such a wise, all-knowing mirror
you must have known that she’s been in the Grimm Forest all this time!
MIRROR: Ohhhh, see, when you said “in all the land”
I thought you meant around here. Like in this kingdom.
I did not know we were counting the Grimm Forest. My bad.
Well, it doesn’t matter. She’s gone forever this time!
And you better watch your back!
[gulps]
MS. BOOKSY: The Evil Queen was also quite angry with the Huntsman.
She put him in jail and threw away the key!
Wait! I didn’t have dinner yet!... Aw man.
Meanwhile, back in Grimm Forest, the dwarfs were just coming home from work.
What’s that?
Looks like a statue!
Looks like Snow White!
Cool!! I want a statue that looks like me!
Snow White! Snow White, come out here! There’s a statue that looks just like you!
Wait, I think this IS Snow White!
It must be an evil curse from that evil Queen!
She's so evil!!
Oh no!
MS. BOOKSY: The dwarfs were so upset!
They didn’t know how to reverse a curse!
And they didn’t know whether Snow White could think or feel in there or if she truly was made of stone.
What if she’s scared?
What if she gets cold?
We have to move her inside!
MS. BOOKSY: The dwarfs tried with all their might, but they couldn’t move Snow White.
Professor, do you know any ways to reverse a spell?
Well, let's see...
Maybe she could kiss a frog
Here!
Why do you have a frog in your pocket?
Why not! It’s cute!
Okay, let’s reverse this spell!
Maybe say some magic words!
Alakazam! Abra Cadabra! Kalamazoo!
Bless you!
It’s no use! We don’t know magic!
We could go to a witch.
But the witches live in the scary part of the forest!
We’ll just have to brave.
Yes, we have to save our friend!
MS. BOOKSY: The Professor and Giddy set off to find a witch to reverse the spell,
while the rest of the gang stood watch to guard and protect Snow White.
Shoo! Go away!
What if we can’t reverse the spell and Snow White is a statue forever?
GIDDY: Don’t worry, Tiny. We’ll have a happy ending! I just know it!
I sure hope he’s right!
Well, we’ll see in Chapter 9—coming soon!
