This collection of "sort-of" fairytales by new author Brad Grochowski combines classic story-telling with imaginative wit to create four stories that may very well become classics in their own right: - A young boy knows The Secret Weakness of Dragons. Before he can use this secret to banish the terrible dragon from his kingdom, however, he becomes best friends with the beast. He still has to get rid of it though, if he ever wants to move out of his mother's house! - Sarah Parance could have anything she ever wanted - all she had to do was imagine it, and it would come true. Until, that is, she decided she wanted True Love! - A brand new child robot records his last ten days before being introduced to the world outside of his room. He can only imagine how vast the world must be... - Moblos, the greatest story teller of all the tribes, tells how Eto the Trickster tricked the Two-leggeds into creating the world. A creation myth from the perspective of a primitive tribe . . . of rats.

Brad does it again!,
By Jim the neighbor "Jimbo" (Baltimore, MD, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Secret Weakness of Dragons and Other Tales a Fairy Whispered In My Ear (Paperback)
The multi-talented and gifted author Brad Grochowski scores a touchdown with this light-hearted and thoughtful collection. Mr. Grochowski's literary style is similar to Dashiell Hammett, if Mr. Hammett wrote fiction for kids. Well done, affordable,and nicely drawn. Looking forward to his next effort. My kids loved the book.
