Fairy Realm: A Collection Of The Favourite Old Tales Told in Verse

by Tom Hood

This collection brings together five beloved fairy tales: "The Sleeping Beauty," "Little Red Riding Hood," "Puss in Boots," "Cinderella," and "Hop o' my Thumb." The stories, originally presented in prose, are reimagined by Tom Hood in rhyming verse. Each tale retains its familiar characters and plot points, but Hood's poetic treatment adds a fresh and whimsical layer to these classic narratives.
