As I was saying, the favorite for me was "8: The Previously Untold Story of the Previously Unknown 8th Dwarf". This is the one that after giggling and finishing the story I felt the need to read it aloud to my older kids. Who in turn also laughed through it!
I love that 8th dwarf, even though his life ends up being full of nasty tragic treatment. I almost fell off my chair at the portrayal of Snow White entering the house, and her encounters with the "witch" were absolutely priceless! The ending however caught me off guard, as well as the kids. We NEVER thought about that when Snow White went into her sleeping slumber.
This is a story that caused our family to open up and talk about how stories that get handed down can easily be altered by a sentence or meaning, and how it continues until we have the more innocent looking ones that you hear today.
I read the other two stories alone, and they were equally as fascinating. I enjoyed fitting each tidbit or clue to different characters or Fairy Tales. Although I am going to come off as a complete idiot for not catching it sooner- the last story "Jack'd", it took me a bit to realize the first words from the graffiti artist's.
The middle story, "The Plight and Plot of Princess Penny", showed me more of some very valuable lessons to be learned. This story or lessons were much more entertaining than what I could preach to my kids, especially my daughters.
I absolutely loved reading TaleSpins and I would/will recommend it to anyone. If you enjoy a quirky twist on the good ole fashioned fairy tale, then you will enjoy it too.… (mais)
