These three beautifully illustrated rehashed fairy tales are hilarious and in one instance, someone is literally eaten. Read them and see if you can figure out who it is. Corey Rosen Schwartz and Dan Santat have created an over the top rework of The Three Little Pigs as martial arts warriors defeating the Big Bad Pig with their moves. The Three Ninja Pigs is worth a few chuckles while being read-a-loud to the family.
In Goldilocks and Just One Bear, Leigh Hodgkinson sets Baby Bear on a path through the city where he becomes lost and accidentally stumbles upon an old friend's house and their friendship is renewed, but does Baby Bear really belong in the city?
Each two page spread has a different nursery tale character in the middle of a crime. Now that you are familiar with the classic rhymes, you'll love reading these twists on them. Who Pushed Humpty Dumpty? And Other Notorious Nursery Tale Mysteries by David Levinthal and John Nickle is a hilarious romp for everyone.
