About The Magic Feather
“Marjorie Tesser’s twenty-first century take on traditional myths and fairytales is charming, inventive, and full of bold ideas and images that turn the tables on the originals. Well-written and sometimes comic but always serious, these are women for our times!”
--Hettie Jones, author of How I Became Hettie Jones and Doing Seventy
“…the mothers, grandmothers, princesses, and queens each offer their own take never celebrated in Mother Goose and other gatherings of popular fables..” --Tara Betts, author of Arc & Hue
“Like Sexton, Tesser challenges prescriptions for female lives which are taught through simple storytelling.”
--Lois Roma-Deeley in The Gila River Review
