About this book
Familiar fairy tales are recast as comic verse with abrupt changes to their customary events and characters. The opening version of Cinderella sends her from a cellar to a palace dance, then complicates the familiar business of the lost slipper. Roald Dahl's children's collection uses rhyme, blunt dialogue and dark humor to challenge the reassuring shape of traditional stories.
