Arthur, D.W., and their friends bring a touch of their own personalities and senses of humor to this sprightly collection of classic bedtime stories. "Could you please be more careful--you're drooling on my cape," says D.W. to the wolf in "Little Red Riding Hood." "Lucky I'm not afraid of heights," proclaims Francine as she climbs to the top of the mattresses in "The Princess and the Pea." Master weaver Arthur has the last laugh in "The Emperor's New Clothes." Each short, fun-to-read story has just the right mixture of the familiar tales with the contemporary spin of Arthur and his friends. "The Frog Prince," "The Three Bears," "The Three Little Pigs," and others round out this big, heavily illustrated hardcover bonanza for parents. Yes, it's really helpful in getting the kids settled down and ready for bed!

My son loves this book, he sat down and spent 30 minutes flipping the pages and looking through the book. Here you'll find lots of classic fairy tales done-up with Arthur characters, and toned down for young readers. It's modern-ish and there's a fair amount of excitement for a bed-time story, but my son enjoys it. A great price for such a large collection. I'd recommend them.
This is really a terrific book--it takes classic fairy and folk tales and gives them a non-sexist, modern twist. Younger kids will appreciate the pictures and the Arthur characters while older kids will understand the humor, courtesy of the subtle play on words throughout the book. It would be a terrific book to add to one's home or classroom library, and even useful for teachers of upper elementary or middle grades while doing a unit on fairy or folk tales.
I have read this book and when my babysitter came, she used to read a story and I would go to sleep. It is like magic. Sometimes, I read the book to myself and notice the drawings and the fairy tales. I think of the colors that I see and see what it reminds me of. But it really does work on me.
