'Guaranteed to raise the hairs on the back of your neck. A wonderful addition to the bookshelf of any young reader who seeks to walk on the spookier side of the street' - Neil Gaiman 'Deliciously dark, provocative, modern and relevant...Think Grimm's tales told with a splash of Roald Dahl from a world turned upside-down' - The School Reading List 'This collection ... intentionally avoids the Disney-fication of folklore ... These tales are disturbing - and satisfyingly so... Atmospheric illustrations pair effectively with the text, and Campbell departs from tradition to include overtly feminist stories as well as gay and lesbian romance without a hint of societal condemnation... Creepy and progressive' - Kirkus Reviews 'Smart, layered and full of beautiful storytelling ... The stories are dynamic and thrilling and the illustrations are just so incredibly vivid ... brilliant!' - Elle McNicoll, author of 'A Kind of Spark' 'Quietly revolutionary... fairy tales retold from a perspective - feminist, queer, disabled - that you don't often find in traditional tales. Beautifully done' - James Catchpole, author of 'What Happened to You?'
