From the Author

Simply the best book ever written by man or beast
It is true that I am the author of this fine tome, but that has not in any way shaped my judgement in this review - I am being COMPLETELY objective when I tell you that this collection of Seriously Silly Stories is quite simply the greatest literary achievement since what? Dante, Shakespeare, Mr Men... Modesty alone prevents me from saying more. Buy the book - judge for yourself...

(REAL NAME)   
These set of books - 10, absolutely brilliant. My six year old has read Cinderboy.. (a boys version of Cinderella!) 100's of times and loves it along with the others in this series. All books he has enjoyed immensely. A must have for all children of primary age ! All stories are new modern day extremely funny fairytales based on the original fairytale. A definate laugh for adults too. Great for schools too. Get them now !

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent humourous children's book, 17 Jul 2000
By R. Green "princesspentium" (West London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As a teacher of 7 & 8 year olds, I have to write to say that this book has been THE favourite of my class this year. They were so inspired as to persuade me to adapt a story, 'Snow White and the Seven Aliens' for a school assembly last month. It was a terrific hit with the rest of the schooll.We have read the stories several times and enjoy both the humour and morality of some of the tales. We have even discussed some of the relevant topics in Circle Time during our PSHE lessons. I have recommended the book to several parents and other staff. A definite hit, I will be using it again with my new class in September.

5.0 out of 5 stars A grandads view., 4 Nov 2008
By A. D. Howe "Alfie" (Eaglescliffe, England.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As a grand father, (and P.T.A. member), who goes into the local primary school for half an hour three days a week to read stories, I have found that these 'silly' stories are very popular with the reception and first year classes. I was borrowing the books individually from the local library each time, and so this collection of all ten stories in hard back, and at this price, is an absolutely brilliant addition to my library of childrens books.
Alfie.
