Last year I was offered the Grimm fairy-tale book revisited by Philip Pullman as a Christmas gift. When you think about it, these are some pretty grim stories for kids. Not so much based on the Evil Queen in Snow White, obsessed with her magical mirror, this graphic probably finds its inspiration in the White Witch of Narnia, I had neither in mind and let my imagination run wild as always — the significance usually occurring later on.

She isn't a real queen at all [...] She's a horrible witch, the White Witch. Everyone, all the wood people — hate her. She has made an enchantment over the whole country so that it is always winter here and never Christmas.
