Description

Once upon a time... nothing was as it seemed.

What if Sleeping Beauty were actually a frog princess, cursed forever to weep, sleep... and leap? Or the Three Chickens had to outwit Goldifox? What if Cinder-Elephant had the chance to attend the ball of her dreams -- can she bake her way to meeting a dashing prince?

Zany animals of all species get their own fairy tale endings in these laugh-out-loud twists on the classics from Gregory Maguire, bestselling author of Wicked.

Think you know how these stories end?

• Fairy Tale Retellings: See what happens when Sleeping Beauty is a frog, the Three Little Pigs are penguins, and Cinderella is an elephant with a talent for baking.

• Humorous Stories for Kids: Laugh-out-loud short stories that turn classic tales upside down, from a snarky toad princess to a surprisingly clever Baby Chick.

• Zany Animal Characters: Meet Goldifox, the Three Chickens, and a whole cast of critters who prove you don't have to be human to get a fairy tale ending.

• Classic Stories with a Twist: From the bestselling author of Wicked, Gregory Maguire, comes a witty chapter book that will make you rethink your favorite bedtime stories.
