Review

"In bouncy verse and pithy language, Dahl gives his own irreverent versions of some familiar fairy tales, and Blake's scrabbly, lively line and wash pictures capture the mood of manic lampoon...A sophisticated spoof."

Publisher's note

Six of the best known fairy tales are retold, with some extremely surprising twists, by the master of the comic and the bloodcurdling--Roald Dahl. Includes Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, Little Red Riding Hood, and The Three Little Pigs. Full color.

Annotation

Six popular fairy tales are retold irreverently in rhyme by master storyteller Dahl. In "Cinderella," the prince isn't as charming as everyone thinks, and Cinderella marries someone else. In "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," the magic mirror is used by Snow White to predict winners at the races. Other transformed tales are "Jack and the Beanstalk," "Goldilocks and the Three Bears," "Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf," and "The Three Little Pigs."
