The Magic Paintbrush and Other Enchanted Tales by Henry Lien, Kwame Alexander (Introduction by), Jennifer Torres, Varsha Bajaj: Series: Ghostwriter

These are fairy tales rewritten and they have a unique flavor.  They expand the tale and are more exciting than the regular tales.

Sourcebooks Wonderland and Edelweiss allowed me to read this book for review (thank you).  It will be published November 3rd.

The original tales are included at the back of the book.  Comparing them made me appreciate the new version.  There is a message in each tale.

This is a good way to learn about other countries and their literature.  The stories are good.
