Reach for this book when your child is starting to outgrow traditional picture books but still craves the magic of folklore, or if they have developed a dry, sarcastic sense of humor. This collection is perfect for the reader who enjoys questioning rules and looking at the world through a slightly cynical, comedic lens. It provides a bridge between early childhood stories and the sophisticated parody found in middle grade literature. Michael Coleman retells ten iconic fairy tales with a modern, tongue-in-cheek twist. While the core themes of good versus evil and the power of imagination remain, they are seasoned with witty observations and updated character motivations. It is an excellent choice for reluctant readers who find standard prose too dense, as the fast paced, humorous style keeps the energy high and the engagement levels even higher.
