A Tale Dark and Grimm By:Jaque Lae

In this creative, old fairy tale, Hansel and Gretel walk right out of their story and into eight more classic fairy tales. They find themselves in exciting and scary situations, encountering witches, warlocks, dragons, and the devil himself. As the brother and sister find their way through the treachourus  forest, they learn the truth behind all of these stories, and come to realize that they control their own ending, as well as their "happily ever after." Because, as the narrator says, once upon a time... fairy tales were awesome.

I liked this book because of how it brought 8 classic fairy tales into one book and how all 8 tales pieced together into one new super fairy tale.

I recommend this book to the readers who like gory/humorous kinda stories.

One thing I would change about the book is the way it bounced from place to place one story to another.

I think this book should move on because of the way it describes the charcters and events in the book so well. I also believe it should move on because of how the author put in a narrator in the book to make it more humoruous and fun!
