These reminded me of the "colorized" fairy tales published by Jump at the Sun, an imprint of Hyperion Books (named after the Zora Neale Hurston quote). Cinderella is brown, the Prince has corn rows, Goldilocks has braids with gold beads on them, Jack (of beanstalk fame) has dreads, and Rapunzel...well, you get the idea. :-)

Oh, anyway. It was the only shade of brown they had! LOL

They also publish young adult books as well.
