The story “Beauty and the Beast” is well known to most people—or is it? In this retelling of the classic fairy tale, the dark details of the original story return. Readers who have only seen the famous movie will find the beast much harsher, but the goodness of the young woman who comes to know him remains enchanting. Richly colored images and illustrations accompany this tale as well as “The Goblin Pony,” "Tom Tit Tot," "The Goblin Pony," "The Jellyfish and the Monkey," and "The Strange Visitor." Though from other cultures, they offer the same eeriness of more familiar tales.

But one day, a gang of "heroic" adventurers bursts in. These marauders trash the place, steal all the treasure, and make off with Skeleton—leaving Goblin all alone! It's up to Goblin to save the day. But first he's going to have to leave the dungeon and find out how the rest of the world feels about goblins.

It is unwise to steal from goblins... In order to save a dying silver kitten, a kind-hearted sprite makes a desperate decision. It is a choice that will change her life forever. Because all debts come due eventually, and a debt to the Goblin King is no small thing. Caught up in an age-old enmity, can Lumina find a way to make good what she owes and still keep all she holds dear? Will the price of her choice be more than she can pay? No matter the answer, some things are worth the cost, whatever it might be. At its heart, Lumina and the Goblin King is a fairytale - complete with goblins, fairies, elementals and the like - plus one opinionated silver cat. There is no obscene language or mature scenes; although there are some mild thematic elements.
“Rapunzel” and “Cinderella” have both been imagined as movies with happy endings and positive morals. However, both stories began as haunting fairy tales long ago. In “Rushen Coatie,” a similar story to “Cinderella,” the wicked stepsisters don’t just end up without the prince, their toes are cut off! And Rapunzel’s witch? She sends Rapunzel to live in the desert! Though old, these tales will enthrall readers familiar with happier fairy tales and stimulate their imaginations with full-color images and illustrations. Other dark fairy tales from around the world, including "The Dragon of the North" and "The Demon with the Matted Hair," introduce readers to new tales of terror and woe.
