Summary

The story of Finette Cendron is like a greatest hits of fairy tales. A tale of betrayal, sisters, ogres, bad poetry, and haircuts, we see three sisters brave the wilds and everything the fairy tale world can throw at them, to make things right.

The creature is Cutty Soams! He'll cut your soams...if he's not a secret Scooby-Doo villain.
