A gorgeous new edition of the classic collection of fractured fairy tales from Gregory Maguire, nationally bestselling author of Wicked--with new cover and interior artwork and two never-before-published stories!

Once upon a time . . . nothing was as it seemed.

Zany animals of all species get their own fairy tale endings in these laugh-out-loud twists on the classics from Gregory Maguire, bestselling author of Wicked.
