| book description |

From the beloved children's book duo, Jeanne and William Steig, comes six classic fairy tales retold with a refreshing twist that will keep you laughing from beginning to end! ""Is it Crumple or Blister, or Guggle or Nank? Williwaw, Flimflam, or Hiccup or Clank?"" Says the Queen to Rumplestiltskin, of course! In this delightfully odd and sublime collection of six classic fairy tales, Jeanne and William Steig put a quirky twist on ""Rumplestiltskin,"" ""Beauty and the Beast,"" ""Hansel and Gretel,"" ""Little Red Riding Hood,"" ""The Frog Prince,"" and ""Jack and the Beanstalk."" Retold in illustrated verse, A Handful of Beans is a wry and highly amusing take on the tales you thought you knew.
