Publisher Description

Soon to be a Netflix animated series! The New York Times bestselling debut by Adam Gidwitz, the Newbery Honor-winning author of The Inquisitor's Tale. “A wonderful sense of humor and narrative voice … completely fresh and unique.” –Rick Riordan, #1 bestselling author Hansel and Gretel walk out of their own story and into eight other classic Grimm (and Grimm-inspired) fairy tales. An irreverent, witty narrator leads us through encounters with witches, warlocks, dragons, and the devil himself. As the siblings roam a forest brimming with menacing foes, they learn the true story behind the famous tales, as well as how to take charge of their destinies and create their own happily ever after. Because once upon a time, fairy tales were awesome. For more awesome fairy tales by Adam Gidwitz look for In a Glass Grimmly and The Grimm Conclusion.

"Really enjoyed this book -- funny, quick reading, clever kids and dumb adults. Added to scary books shelf, even though it's not exactly scary. It's gory, I'll keep it as a back up when I can't find any other scary books. "

    " My mom read it and said it was cute and I might like it. I won't say anything other then that it really was cute. Oh, and clever. It was that as well. Don't think I'll read it again, but it was cute. "

    " A retelling of Hansel and Gretel with all the brood and gore of the original Grimm tales. It is also wickedly clever. "

  • Overall Performance: 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5

    " Sarcastic, funny, and as the title implies very dark. This book is certainly not for squeamish children who are easily frightened as it contains a lot of gory images. It is a very fun, unique, and complex telling of the Grimm Fairytales that I think children will enjoy. "

    " I really enjoyed this, and it had a similar tone to Lemony Snicket. It's clever and original, and while it isn't a book for a sensitive reader (there are lots of scary bits) it will appeal to kids 10-12. "

    " The narration that was always cutting in really annoyed me. Other than that, the stories were really entertaining. "

    " An extremely wonderful book, but a tiny bit gory. It's quite funny in some parts and very serious and dangerous in other parts. I love how the author talk directly to the reader. "
