I was trying to decide between writing on The Goose Girl and
The Giver. I first read both books in middle school when I was awkwardly trying
to feel comfortable in my own skin and figure out who I wanted to be. So both
of these books influenced my view on myself. I ended up deciding on writing
about The Goose Girl (although I could be easily swayed if anyone tried to
persuade me). It is a simple retelling of a Grimm Brothers story but is written
in a way that it still became popular.
Shannon Hale (the author - 22,500 twitter followers) and the Goose Girl series (4
books) have a pretty solid fan following, and I think they might all take
interest in this paper. People who study folklore, fairytales, or fantasy may
find it interesting (especially since it is a retelling of a classic story).
Librarians and English teachers would probably also find it interesting. Goodreads groups and people who like the author or her books.
