A Tale Dark And Grimm By Adam Gidwitz

This book is a horror/humor themed novel. I usually do not like horror and humor together but I think that this book changed my mind. This book is about Hansel and Gretel. All of you probably know about Hansel and Gretel and their cheesy little witch story. but this book shows the original, grimm, tale. Not only does it show you the witch story but it also shows you a bunch of other horrifying, eye-popping, tales. I would recommend this book to people who don’t feel queasy when they read about blood and people who do not get scared easily because as said before, this book is pretty scary (not to me but probably to some people in the grade.) I would rate this book 5 out of 10 stars because I really think that this book did not get the most appealing introduction and ending. But what I really do love about this book is all of the fantasy and adventure in between the horror and humor. The last story about a dragon seemed the most upbeat but if you want to know what it was you’ll have to read the book to find out.

  1. Oliver!

    What a great review. You really gave a good sense of what this book is like. Plus your description of who would like the book is really illuminating.

    Two things though – please include a picture and rate the book on a scale of 1 to 5 not on a scale of 1 to 10.

    Hudson, your comment is interesting. Say more!

  2. I have the book but I have not started it yet Imet the author with kate b and he signed a copy for each of us but I think she got the last one.
