Alright everyone! This is going to be a pretty enormous blog post because I am listing fairy tales & fractured fairy tales picture books, & then I'm going to mention a few novels for adults too! Who doesn't love a good fairy tale? Be sure to tune into episode #28 of my podcast to hear me discuss the benefits of reading fairy tales aloud. And please share any of your favorites with me! 
Beauty & The Beast  will always be my absolute favorite, but I love finding new versions of fairy tales or rediscovering older ones.

Fairy Tale & Fractured Fairy Tale Picture Books: 
1. Violet & the Woof,
  by: Rebecca Grabill & Dasha Tolstikova
(Violet & her little brother live in an apartment building, where they are roaming around one day to bring soup to a sick neighbor. They hear scary noises & get lost in the laundry room, so it's strangely reminiscent of Little Red's travels through the woods to take her sick grandma some soup.)
