Book Description:
Following in the footsteps of Politically Correct Bedtime Stories, this book retells classic bedtime stories, stripped of any elements that might be offensive to women, gays, short people, minorities, giants, or wolves, as well as any details that might encourage aggression, cruelty, sexism, prejudice, littering, and so on.

At the same time he pokes fun at our politically correct sensitivity, the author points out biases in our traditional stories that we may not have been aware of.

This small book takes 'Political Correctness' to the extreme!For instance: "A Political Alphabet," and "Sleeping Person Of Better-Than-Average Attractiveness." Very funny!

Funny, sarcastic, tongue-in-cheek. Sometimes naughty.
