The Times Educational Supplement "There's even a special mini-newspaper insert that will give young children the grown-up experience of reading their very own newspaper!" Child Education "A romping laugh-aloud tale with wittily detailed illustrations." The Sunday Tribune"

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun take on your classic fairytales, 20 Jul 2006
By ELH Browning "Esther-Lou" (Kingston Bagpuize, Oxon) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
This is great book which interlinks three classic stories, Jack and the Beanstalk, Goldilocks and the three Bears and Red Riding Hood, against a background of other fairytales and nursery rhymes and a copy of the Fairytale Newspaper at the back of the book adds an extra dimension.. The pictures are fun, and my children enjoy the map page where they can spot the houses where the three pigs and Cinderella live for example. The picture of the wolf running through the wood in Granny's nightclothes is always good for a giggle and look out for the peeking roving reporter who is collecting news items for the Fairytale Newspaper. Both my son 4 and daughter 5 choose this from the shelf - I recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fairytale News! What a great read!, 29 Mar 2005
This review is from: Fairytale News (Hardcover)
I wasn't expecting my own copy of 'Fairytale News' at the end of the book (what a fantastic surprise!). The book and the newspaper are both very funny, clever and brilliant! My whole family loved it and if you like fairy tales I dare you not to...

5.0 out of 5 stars fantastic!, 31 Jul 2008
By M. Lee (manchester uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I love this book! It cleverly includes many well known stories. The illustrations are lovely and add more to the story. The newspaper at the back is very funny. My 3-5 yr olds love this book.
