Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Following in the footsteps of Politically Correct Bedtime Stories, this book retells classic bedtime stories, stripped of any elements that might be offensive to women, gays, short people, minorities, giants, or wolves, as well as any details that might encourage aggression, cruelty, sexism, prejudice, littering, and so on.

At the same time he pokes fun at our politically correct sensitivity, the author points out biases in our traditional stories that we may not have been aware of.

About the Author
James Finn Garner is a writer and performer whose last book, Politically Correct Bedtime Stories, is an international bestseller. Called "a master of the tour de force" by The Washington Post and "a smart-alec, mealy-mouthed creep" by The London Daily Telegraph, Garner feels the truth lies somewhere in between. He lives in Chicago with his wife/lifemate and their new pre-adult. --This text refers to the Audio Cassette edition.
