Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 3 - These retellings are suitable as read-alouds and for independent reading. The texts are comfortable and accessible, and the color illustrations reflect the signature styles of the artists. Rumpelstiltskin is an appropriately ugly little creature without being frightening. The three bears live in a charming elevated house reminiscent of a Swiss chalet, and they ski. Jack and the Beanstalk has the darkest imagery - the giant's head is misshapen and at times he has wild eyes. Riding Hood and Goldilockshave the most cheerful and brightest artwork that, despite serious events, remains cartoonlike and jolly. The pictures definitely help carry the stories and the language is straightforward. Other excellent versions include Jim Aylesworth's Goldilocks and the Three Bears (Scholastic, 2003), Paul O. Zelinsky's Rumpelstiltskin (Dutton, 1986), James Marshall's Red Riding Hood (Dial, 1987), and Steven Kellogg's Jack and the Beanstalk (HarperCollins, 1991). - Linda M.
