These are just a few of the books I have seen/read in class this semester. I mean, we hear about 15-20 books a week, but these stuck out, and I own now... haha. Last week our theme was fairy tales, and the retellings are just hilarious. And I went a little crazy on them. Waking Beauty and Falling for Rapunzel are by the same author, who also has a couple more if I remember correctly, but they are funny new versions of classic stories.
The Frog Prince Continued is the happily ever after part of the story, where things aren't so happily ever after. And then Once Upon a Time the End is a story of a father who tells the classic stories quickly really wanting that kid to just fall asleep! All of them had me smiling, if not laughing out loud in the bookstore.
Then we have The Dot and Ish, by the same person, Peter H. Reynolds. These are feel good stories with nice morals at the end and all that warm fuzzy. It will bring a tear to your eye. no joke. So read with caution! But, good books, and beautiful illustrations.
