The Fairy Tale Fan Club : legendary letters collected by C.C. Cecily

Personal Author EPSB
Richard, Ayoade

Summary
"It's once upon a time . . . as only the irreverently witty Richard Ayoade can tell it. In this series of letters organized by fictitious C. C. Cecily, Senior Secretary of the Fairy Tale Fan Club, the fairest of them all (and a few bitter foes) correspond with curious--and opinionated--fans. So if you've ever wondered how a less-than-genius (and less-than-clothed) emperor fell for a certain con, how the Big Bad Wolf is handling meatless Mondays, or whether Rapunzel recommends going for the big chop, no need to look far, far away. Richard Ayoade hilariously imagines what questions modern children would have for characters such as Sleeping Beauty, Prince Charming, and Little Red Riding Hood---and what they might have to say in return. Complete with clever, spoof-gothic illustrations from David Roberts, this wry storybook may have even the Brothers Grimm cackling in their graves."-- Adapted from Publisher
