Enchanting and enchanted . . . A lively read
Books for Keeps
This second foray is even more enjoyable than the author’s acclaimed debut

School Library Journal
Gidwitz is back with a second book that, if possible, outshines A Tale Dark and Grimm
School Library Journal
Imagine Lemony Snicket does Fairy Tales. Great stuff
Peters, Book of the Week
Funny and challenging at the same time
The School Librarian
A clever mix of humour, adventure and grisly bits – not for the faint-hearted!
Primary Times
A creative romp through traditional and tradition-based story-scapes, compulsively readable and just as read-out-loudable.
Kirkus Reviews, Best of 2012
Gory, hilarious, touching, and lyrical all at once, with tons of kid appeal.
The Horn Book
Funny, slightly creepy reworking of ‘Jack and Jill’, interwoven with other fairy tales.
Teen Titles
Sassy, funny and addictive. A really fun read.
Tablet
A dark and witty fairytale without the sugar-coating.
