Goose Girl Retellings

For 2025 I wanted to give my Fairy Tale Retellings board on Pinterest some extra love. And nothing is better than a book recommended by another reader with similar preferences so each month I've been asking the Champions on social media to help me update a different section with more books. In January we did Goose Girl (since my version of the story was free in December) and here's what they came up with!

We tried to limit these to no spice and mild language only but as always we recommend you check the reviews if you have content concerns.

Special Goose Girl side note: In the original fairy tale the talking horse owned by the princess dies. :( I greatly dislike that part so I changed that plot point for my version of the story but some of these stick close to the original so be warned.
