Grimm Tales for Young and Old by Philip Pullman
2.0
Not a book to read all in one go.
I picked this book up due to my fascination with fairy tales and their many adaptations. Having been a fan of Philip Pullman's past works I thought his adaptations of much-loved stories would be interesting.
As much as I loved the stories that I already knew; Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, and Rapunzel to name a few, the others made the experience not as entertaining as I'd hoped. Despite the stories that weren't as fun to read there was an ok balance when it came to the stories that I did fine enjoyable.
