Fairytales for Privileged Children: Little Red Riding Hood Blows Her Trust Fund & Other Premium Tales

From Cinderella's haute couture wardrobe to Hansel and Gretel's Ozempic journey, Daniel Foxx reworks classic fairytales for the most privileged of children.

“Daniel has written a book that is literally about my petulant kids”
- Katherine Ryan

“A gorgeously delicious book about awful people. I never liked Hansel and Gretal, anyway!”
- Rosie Jones

Once upon a time, in a land far away (in fact, in an entirely different tax bracket), there lived some perfectly privileged children...

In Fairytales for Privileged Children: Little Red Riding Hood Blows Her Trust Fund and Other Premium Tales, author and comedian Daniel Foxx reworks classic fairytales to suit only the most comfortable of tots. Meet: Rapunzel, whose stay in a boutique tower-concept hotel is just the ticket. Aspiring gourmand Jack, who sensibly exchanges his cow for a handful of 100% organic legumes. The two ugly stepsisters, Porchetta and Frankette, whose deep-plane facelifts yield excellent results. And The Three Little Pigs, whose property portfolio is - quite frankly - booming.

Wickedly funny and razor-sharp, Daniel Foxx's enchanted stories make for perfect fireside reading this Autumn - just be sure the household staff don't pinch it for themselves!
