A note for parents

Lucy Cousins' retelling of eight classic fairy tales is a colorful, accessible introduction to beloved stories. The tales retain traditional plot elements including mild peril and some scary moments (a wolf, a witch), but are softened by Cousins' warm illustrations and child-friendly presentation. The stories reward cleverness, kindness, and courage, making this a solid foundation for early readers.
