I love seeing the classic fairy tales you know in this way. It's very fun and enjoyable and also at times kind of deep for a middle grade book.

"This fabulous collection of reworked fairy tales blew me away when I first read it, at eighteen. I've returned to it many times since then, and always find something new in it."

"Carter’s sensual, erotic retellings of fairy tales and folk tales blend Snow White, Red Riding Hood, and Beauty (of “Beauty and the Beast”) into shape-shifting creations that are Carter’s own. A girl attacked by a wolf can love the wolf or even become a wolf herself; the beauty can be beastly, too."
