Publisher Comments

Everyone thinks they know the real story behind the villains in fairy tales?evil, no two ways about it. But the villains themselves beg to differ. In Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling?s new anthology for younger readers, you?ll hear from the Giant?s wife (?Jack and the Beanstalk?), 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!

`	Jane Stein , December 02, 2009 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.
