Not the origianl story

This is not the original but a soft rewrite. I will be returning because there is no “perhaps she’ll die” and no “swallowed a horse… she’s dead of course.” If you hated the original morbid version, then congrats this sugarcoated soft version is for you. I wanted the original book that I read as a child.

Perfect!

This is one of my toddlers favorite books! The illustrations are cute and it’s short enough that we can make it through the whole book before he gets bored.
