Most traditional children’s bedtime stories are based on historical events involving violence, disease, death, corruption, and lots of sex. Over the years, they have been sanitised, and handed down to children as soporific morality tales. This book claims for adults fourteen of the best-known tales, giving them a strong twist of humour, and jerking them into modern times. All the traditional male heroes, including Peter Pan, and the numerous princes, kings, emperors, pigs, and amphibians, are ridiculed for their weakness and effeminacy. The new heroes are beautiful, strong, very sexy, know what they want, and how to get it, and are all a princess who prefers frogs to hunky princes, Wendy, who takes over from Peter Pan, and gets her hook, Pinocchio, who grows into a very big girl, Jill, whose cunning plan and genetically-modified beanstalk, make her a fortune, and Little Red Riding Hood, who is not so little, and now red hot! Have an early night.

I was looking for something on Kindle unlimited during a trial. This looked interesting. The stories are mildly amusing, but this is not a book I would buy otherwise. I ended up not finishing it.
