Fractured Fairy Tales & Other Adaptations

Fairy Tales have been around for centuries, but authors are always coming up with new twists on the classics.  These types of stories are otherwise known as fractured fairy tales.

If you love the stories of Cinderella, Rumplestiltskin, Rapunzel, and Sleeping Beauty, but enjoy a bit of humor, you will surely love fractured fairy tales.
