Preface for Book 2
A continuation of Book 1's wondrous characters as well as numerous additions: Goldilocks and the three bears, The Pied Piper, The little Mermaid and many more surprises. Ten fascinating stories to ignite the imagination. If you're lucky we might even catch up with the storyteller and the ageing starlet Snow White!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------These tales are not stories in the conventional sense. They are steeped in the quirky tradition of Hans Christian Anderson and the Brothers Grimm's collected stories.
I've used the framework of the fairytale to condense a novels ideas into a short story. Time and time again things are introduced and taken away and moved around and... The fairytale has a sweet and glorious pace all of its own.
These fairytales are unique in their freshness and timeless and easy to read and full to the brim of all the magical things life can bring. There is death and sour endings and goodness and rewards and twists and unique spins on old friends, we believe we knew all too well.
Life is full of kookiness, drenched in unusual characters, invented or witnessed in real life.
They are alive to me. I hope they shall live on for you also...
Sincerely the author
D. David Croot
