"so LONG!!! and while I liked the story line and the historical aspect, I could have done without the physical relationships of all of the characters..."
"I wish my parents had read this aloud to me when I was little- perhaps one of the best collections of fairy tales I've ever read. Calvino finds a very strong narrative voice while still managing to balance his own typical style and the speaking style of those who told him the stories in the first place.
My favorite is a similar story to little red riding hood except with an ogre... "Grandmother, what a big neck you have..." "I've always worn such heavy jeweled necklaces my dear." "Grandmother, what hairy hips you have..." "I always wore my corset a bit too tight my dear.""
