About

°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app

DiTerlizzi’s wickedly delicious tribute to silent film – based on the cautionary tale penned by Mary Howitt in 1829 – presents an old-fashioned, cackling villain and a naïve damsel in distress in this ambient, moody picture book with all the allure of the flickering silver screen.
