Swanning About: Retelling "The Six Swans"
Because my original list is Grimm Brothers specifically, there are other retellings out there that are similar but are listed as retellings of the very similar Hans Christian Andersen tale "The Wild Swans." Here, some of the books may be listed as retellings of/referencing both tales, but for ones that only reference "The Wild Swans," I have not included them in this list.
