WHY?
Have you ever seen an anthology full of Mother Goose Rhymes being re-told....dark retellings, no less? Fairy tales, yes. Nursery rhymes, NO!
I'm intrigued and I want this immediately! Plus, those authors! *flails*
I'm so glad the cover was revealed this week, or else I wouldn't even know this anthology existed!
SUMMARY:
Nursery rhymes sung sweetly can take us back to childhood. But deep inside many of those childhood favorites is… a hint of something dark. TWO AND TWENTY DARK TALES: Dark Retellings of Mother Goose Rhymes imagines dark and sinister things amuck in Mother Goose-land. From familiar rhymes, to some of the more obscure, TWO AND TWENTY DARK TALES is a must read for anyone who enjoyed Mother Goose rhymes as a child, but has come to love the darkest of tales.
