A collection of comic and often gory versions of popular fairy tales. Meet Cinderella, a young woman who wants to marry a nice ordinary man; and Goldilocks, that house-breaker who gobbles up your porridge and then breaks up the Chippendale.

My favourite story in this book was Little Red Riding Hood but I do prefer the original version.

It was a very imaginative book. My favourite character was Jack from Jack and beanstalk because he was very funny. I also liked the book because it was a different way of retelling fairy tales. I gave it 3 stars because the stories were quite short and I wished they were longer, but I enjoyed it.

I like this book due to the fact it’s got short stories and they are very funny. If you have a very quirky sense of humour, I definitely recommend this story.

My favourite rhyme was Cinderella but I thought it was a bit cruel how the prince just chopped of one of the sisters head

Some stories were a bit sad because the wolf was naughty.

This book has a few stories inside it, so I liked lots of characters. Some of the characters I liked include; Snow-White, Little Red Riding Hood and Goldilocks. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes poems, rhymes and a twist on a common story.

I like that it is different to the normal story, it’s funnier. I like it when red riding hood has a pig bag.

It was a very good book. It is fiction and my favourite rhyme was the 3 little pigs. I have recommended the book to my brother.
