«Blanche Neige et Grise Pluie» is the children's story by Grégoire Solotareff and Nadja, published by L'École des Loisirs in French (59 pages).
A retelling of Snow White: the pale-skinned, red-lipped, black-haired girl, the witch, and the mirror that tells the truth cross paths with Grise Pluie, Blanche Neige's half-sister. The hunter loses both in the deep forest; one is very beautiful but not very clever, the other shines with intelligence, and the seven dwarfs are not so good.
The illustrations are watercolours by Grégoire Solotareff; the book was originally published in 2017.
For child and young readers who want to discover a version with a clever half-sister and dwarfs who are far from exemplary.
Grégoire Solotareff is a French artist, writer and illustrator of children's books. Solotareff practiced as a doctor from 1978 to 1985, before beginning his career as an illustrator with Hatier. The publication of his Loulou series from 1989 marked a turning point in his career, showcasing the bold lines and flat primary colours, inspired by Matisse and Van Gogh, that he would become known for. Loulou has sold over a million copies worldwide, but was only translated into English for the first time in 2017.
