"A Tale Dark & Grimm" by this author was a darkly delicious children's book featuring some of the fairy tales told as they were originally intended, scary and creepy. So, finding a new book was a great treat. This one has Jack (Jack and the beanstalk, Jack the Giant-Killer, Jack jumps over the candlestick), the Princess and the Frog, the Emperor has no Clothes, and other fairy tales. One of the highlights of this book that had me laughing out loud is the narrator. He warns the reader throughout, and is abashed when he forgets. If you like your fairytales Grimmtastic, this is a definite must read.
