Synopsis
Parents and children love to play "question" games: Would you eat spaghetti made with gummy worms? Would you wear your clothes backwards all day? Sometimes the answer is "yes" and sometimes it's "no"--but the fun is in the asking. Gifted writer and educator Esme Raji Codell has writtten a book that incorporates fractured fairy tales with this kind of parent-child interplay to create a pitch-perfect combination of bedtime read-aloud and fairytales that will delight children and parents!

From Booklist
Kids current on their fairy tales will appreciate the whimsical way Codell spins the basics by adding one oddball element to each story told by a mother to her recalcitrant boy at bedtime. In the tale of the Three Little Pigs, for instance, solar panels make an appearance along with the straw and bricks. After the boy checks off the tried-and-true elements of Little Red Riding Hoodred hood, wolf, and grandmahe has to pause to consider if shampoo can figure into the plot: NOOOOO! Well, maybe. Chavarris colorful, almost wordless two-page spreads imagine how the twists impact each story and are packed with details delighted readers will pore over. At Grandmas Beauty Salon, for instance, several wolves, one wearing a Big N Bad T-shirt, are getting their fur pampered. Baskets of goodies are for sale, and Grandma is painting the heroines nails with Lil Red polish. This fun outing will be a surefire winner whenever its readbedtime or not. Preschool-Grade 2. --Karen Cruze
