Customer Reviews

Fantaspamistical Book!

I read this book to my K-2 students. They all loved it. I think the part they liked the most was the newspaper that came with it. This is a great way to get the kids excited about the newspaper and to learn about the different sections it offers. I was very impressed with this book's language and illustrations.

A Wicked Book!

I bought this book for my niece's seventh birthday and she loved it. We giggled together as we followed Jack Hubbard (son of Mother Hubbard) as he delivered the Fairytale News to the homes of various fairytale characters.The surprise of having a real copy of the newspaper tucked into the back pocket of the Giant delighted my niece and she read and reread all the news especially about her favourite character BB Wolf. As she said it is a 'wicked book'! Excellent.
