Description
This is a collection of 30 fairy tales.
Quick Summary
For a fresh spin on the stories you already know, Jones weaves together 30 fairy-tale adventures that blend clever wordplay, unexpected twists, and just enough spooky tension to keep middle-grade readers on their toes. Kids who love a good joke, a brave underdog, or a splash of mystery will find plenty to smile about, while the quick-paced chapters make it easy for reluctant readers to power through a story before bedtime. Each tale is short enough to read in one sitting, yet packed with characters who outwit dragons, outmaneuver greedy kings, or solve riddles that teach a lesson without feeling preachy. Parents can rest easy knowing the humor is wholesome and the scary bits are mild, making the collection a good fit for family read-alouds or solo reading. If your child enjoys the playful reimaginings found in "The Princess Bride for Kids" or the whimsical problem-solving of "The Mysterious Benedict Society," this book is a natural next step.
