About this listen

If you've ever wondered if the fairy tales and nursery rhymes you grew up on have any connection to actual events, this book may hold the answers you seek. This exploration of twenty-five children's favorites and their possible origins takes a closer look at such classics as Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Snow White, Rapunzel, Hansel and Gretel, The Snow Queen, Jack Be Nimble, Little Jack Horner, Bluebeard and many others. While some of their histories are as pure as the driven snow, others are downright horrific. So, if you're ready to pull back the curtain on a world that is not nearly as innocent as it seems, turn the page and let the fun begin.
