The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales

Description

A Caledecott Honor Book A New York Times Best Illustrated Book This award-
winning picture book is a wild, irreverent collection of reimagined fairy
tales from the author and illustrator of The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs!.
Makes for an extremely fun and funny read-aloud for the whole family. A long
time ago, people used to tell magical stories of wonder and enchantment. Those
stories were called Fairy Tales. Those stories are not in this book. The
stories in this book are Fairly Stupid Tales. In this fourth wall-breaking
picture book, young readers will delight in the strange twists on familiar
tales. From “The Stinky Cheese Man” to “Cinderummpelstiltskin” these unique,
hilarious retellings poke fun at classic stories and characters. The
wonderfully offbeat and bizarre illustrations, as well as innovative play with
typography and book design, make for a one-of-kind masterpiece from two
powerhouse children’s book creators. Story List: · Chicken Licken · The
Princess and the Bowling Ball · The Really Ugly Duckling · The Other Frog
