A Tale Dark and Grimm
By Adam Gidwitz
Published by Penguin Group, Inc., 2011
256 pages (paperback)
Hansel and Gretel walk out of
their own story and into eight other classic Grimm (and Grimm-inspired) fairy
tales. An irreverent, witty narrator leads us through encounters with witches,
warlocks, dragons, and the devil himself. As the siblings roam a forest
brimming with menacing foes, they learn the true story behind the famous tales,
as well as how to take charge of their destinies and create their own happily
ever after. Because once upon a time, fairy tales were awesome. (from barnesandnoble.com)
I
was never bored and it was extremely interesting. It was perfect. Yes [I would
recommend this to a middle schooler] because it’s imaginative (but it wouldn’t
be good for a little sister or brother!).

It
was scary and really cool. Nothing [could be improved] except it should be more
scary. It was good so yes [I would recommend it] because it was awesome.
