Beanstalker and Other Hilarious Scarytales
Once upon a time, a girl skipped into the forest and became a zombie.
Wait, no, that's not how this story is supposed to go. Let's try again.
Once upon a time, a boy did a horrible job as a sheep-sitter and burned his tongue on stolen pie.
No, children in these stories are always good and virtuous. From the top.
Once
upon a time, a king and queen tried to find a princess for their son to
marry, and he wound up fleeing from a group of very hairy vampires.
Hmmm...
What
about, once upon a time, a bunch of fairy tales got twisted around to
be completely hilarious, a tiny bit icky, and delightfully spooky
scarytales... in other words, exactly what fairy tales were meant to be.
Grab some flaming torches, maybe don't accept that bowl of pease
porridge, and get ready for a wickedly fun ride with acclaimed author
Kiersten White and fairy tales like you've never heard them before.
