Flip-Up Fairy Tales

Illustrators: Tatsiana Burgaud. Subi Bosa, Pat Corrigan

Child’s Play’s beloved and best-selling fairy tales, now reimagined for a new generation of children! Guess what’s under each flap, then lift it to move the action forward. In this new version, Goldilocks is a boy, Father Bear uses a wheelchair and Mother Bear wears glasses. The grandmother in Little Red Riding Hood enjoys winter sports, Little Red is of mixed heritage, and a Black woman, Freya the forester, saves the day. In Jack and the Beanstalk, Jack is of mixed heritage and one spread features a Black, male fairy. The third little pig who builds a house out of bricks is female. Her house is also powered by renewable energy sources.

Features:

• Flaps transform the scenes and give readers opportunities to interact with the story.

• Inclusive illustrations reflect our diverse society and challenge stereotypes.

• Fairy Tales can help children identify and understand the elements of a story (such as character archetypes, story structures and repetition). They can be used as a template for creative writing projects.
