Have fun reliving all of your childhood fairy tales and nursery rhymes. Only enjoy them with an older sense of the world.
You will laugh and be amazed at the clever twists Heather J. Cuthbertson, the author, has been able to put on some of your old favorites: Humpty Dumpty, Georgie Porgie, Cinderella, and Little Bo Peep are just a few of the tales revisited. Only this time, none of the girls are victims. They are strong enough to fend for themselves and solve their problems--even if it means being sneaky or mean.
Ms. Cuthbertson has created a quick read that will make you laugh out loud, and, if you're a girl, stand a little taller. You may not be as wicked as some of the girls in this book, but sometimes it's fun to live vicariously through the gutsy so-not-like-you actions of others. Or maybe they're not so not-like-you. (Wink. Wink.)
Even guys will enjoy reading about these naughty women.
