In Ellen Datlow and Terri Windlingas new anthology for younger readers, youall hear from the Giantas wife (aJack and the Beanstalka), Rumplestiltskin, the oldest of the Twelve Dancing Princesses, and many more. A stellar lineup of authors, including Garth Nix, Holly Black, Neil Faiman and Nancy Farmer, makes sure that these old stories do new tricks

Reviews led me to believe this book would be a good gift for my 7-yr-old grand daughter. WRONG! She took one look at the picture on the cover and burst into tears. Too scary! A few of the tales are imaginative and amusing but several of them left me cold. Not an appropriate book for a young child, and not worth the while for her grandparents.
