Disclosure: Thanks to Disney-Hyperion for sending me a set of VILLAINS books, and for providing a prize pack for my readers
It’s the season of Halloween, not just a day but really, but a whole month of celebration. I love this time of year, for the fabulous costume excitement, the many trips to look at all the neat and scary items at the pop-up Halloween store, and even the themed TV and movie programs. The girls and I have been in Halloween mode for weeks and cannot wait for the big day!
We recently received a set of books from Serena Valentino about the Disney Villains, and the latest book in the series is called Mistress of All Evil – right in time for Halloween! My daughter read one of her books already, it is a popular pick from the school library. All my girls {and myself too} were excited to get their hands on the full set, which includes the new Mistress of All Evil.
About The Disney Villains series by Serena Valentino
These books {for ages 9+} explores how the antagonists in Disney movies became some of storytelling’s most iconic villains. In the first four Villains books, we see how the Evil Queen, the Beast, Ursula, and Maleficent fall into darkness, through the instigation of the mysterious Odd Sisters: Lucinda, Martha, and Ruby.
About Book 4: Mistress of All Evil
Why does Maleficent curse the innocent princess? What led to her becoming so filled with malice, anger, and hatred? Many tales have tried to explain her motives. Here is one account, pulled down from the many passed down through the ages. It is a tale of love and betrayal, of magic and reveries. It is a tale of the Mistress of All Evil.
I just love the idea behind these stories, the kids and love the idea of learning more about what makes these villians so bad. What is their story? The Disney Villians series of books tell just that, as they move past the Princess and happily ever after and dive into the world of the most iconic of antagonists.
