The Golden Dress: A Fairy Tale

By Illustrator Gail Nadeau and L.L. Barkat

The Golden Dress: A Fairy Tale
$14.95Buy Paperback $14.95FREE Kindle Unlimited (or $5.99 to buy)

Exquisite painted photography, digital art, and collage brings to life the story of a seamstress who gives her only daughter a golden dress that grants the girl’s every wish throughout the years. But when the dress begins to age, the girl struggles to embrace the change—and risks losing her mother’s heart and her own special place in the world. A blue lace wind shares the secret of what will be lost, unless the girl can find a way to open her heart and her hands before the dress completely disappears.

About the Illustrator Gail Nadeau

Gail Nadeau has been a fine artist for nearly forty years, and her house is filled with jewel-like colors and many, many pieces of art, including acclaimed works from series like 100 Angels; Black Velvet, White Velvet; and Doll House. From a single surviving photograph of a lost family heirloom white dress, she has—through digital media, painting, and collage—created hundreds of pieces of colorful dress art, just a handful of which are featured in The Golden Dress.
