Sceherazade by Sophie Anderson

  • King is marrying woman, killing them the next day because he hates women, thinks they are deceptive
  • Daughter of sultan's grand-vizir offers herself up to save all women
  • Tells her sister stories to stall being killed
  • This girl is so brave, I think that Queen Eleanor would love her character and story
    • I think I would want to cut the sister, keep it between her and the sultan so that I can further develop the sultan's character
    • Maybe the grand-vizir tries to save her, everything goes wrong?
    • Why didn't she run the plan by her dad? Where's her mom?
ScheherazadeThe Arabian Nights' Entertainments by Andrew Lang and illustrated by H. J. Ford (1898).
