Pretty forgettable and not quite as adorable and amusing as I expected.

I do not think there is much that Gregory Maguire can do wrong when he puts pen to paper. (Yes I have forgiven him for Lost). I really like it when he lets loose to write for children. Leaping beauty is a whole new take on fairy tales and fables. He takes stories you think you know and turns them on their head, or removes the humans in favor of animals. They are fantastic. Read them, listen to them, either way, guaranteed family fun.

I realize this has gotta be for kids, but it cracked me up. As others have said, the penguin story was the best. This was a kindle library book, but I'll be buying a hard copy.

This is a quick read for a quiet afternoon. Maguire has a quick wit, and I liked his sarcasm in retelling these tales. He doesn't take himself too seriously.
