If you’re familiar with the grim nature of original fairy tales, then you understand why. Where Nursery Rhyme Comics can also be entertaining for a younger, pre-K crowd, there are a few tales in Fairy Tale Comics that are for the older crowd (6 & up). One can thumb through a sampling of modern cartoon storytellers depicting tales we all know and love. If you or someone you know is curious to dive into the world of graphic novels, but don’t know where to start, this book is an ideal introduction. At least that is what happened with me the more I read. But with graphic novels you also tend to develop a preference in illustration style. Like reading books with text, readers of graphic novels develop preferences in genres the more they read them. It’s the perfect gateway book into graphic novels for those unfamiliar with reading them. In a nutshell: In the fashion of Nursery Rhyme Comics : 50 Timeless Rhymes from 50 Celebrated Cartoonists (mentioned here!), comes Fairy Tale Comics, a compilation of celebrated graphic artists and illustrators and their interpretations of timeless fairy tales from around the world transformed into colorful, energetic comic panels.
