a compendium of story starters taken from some of the very best fairy tales ever written.

Within the pages of this book are opportunities to write tales of travels through mysterious forests, to invent new companions to help defeat a wicked witch, or to conjure up the ultimate punishment for an innocent prince. Budding authors will have stories to write, journal entries to fill in and pictures of new characters to draw, all inspired by some of the best-loved fairy tales from around the world--not only the well-known stories of the Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen, but also less familiar tales from Eastern Europe, India and the Middle East. The book is also packed full of writing tips, fairy tale fun facts and mind-boggling puzzles to complete.
