Great for kids and parents!

This is a great read to keep kids and parents entertained alike. The play on the original fairy tales is great. This is a must for a library.

For the child who "hates to read" (and for those who love it, too)

This is a favorite among the 8-12 year old crowd. Kids who don't want to read anything else will read this. Over and over. Try a read aloud with voices. Have kids act out the parts. There is something for everyone in this hysterical book!

Little boys love the Stinky Cheese Man

Although it doesn't make as regular an appearance in our bedtime reading schedule, the Stinky Cheese Man does produce giggles.

My kids are too young to know all of the fairy tales this book is busy shredding in the name of parody. That's OK. I plan to reintroduce this to them when they get older.

For now, all I have to do is provide the Stinky Cheese Man with a high-pitched, pseudo-Spongebob voice and read the text as "fast as I can" and I've got a happy audience at bedtime.

Great for the immature

I guess that this is simply a book that has gone down in history infamy for the bizarre bunch of fairytales. Oh, well. I still have fond memories of laughing myself silly over the deranged mutations of otherwise classic fairy tales.

I know these are silly, but oddly... they are probably best appreciated by those who are most familiar with fairy tales.
