I found all of the stories I read to be very entertaining and they all appealed to a different side of creativity.
Tragically Ever After
was an eye catching title for me. I am drawn to fairy tale stories and wanted to
check it out. I thought that the stories were entertaining. I liked how the
author used fairy tale illustrations. The first story, “After Sleeping Beauty
woke,” surprised me rat first. Even though the title seemed dark I did not
expect such a twisted plot in which death was brought to everyone she loved.
I enjoyed the layout
of The heroes diaries. I liked that
the introduction put you in the setting for the series of stories. I thought it
was very creative of the writing to start off with dialogue instead of
explaining a situation or story. The sword and the stone is a story that
several have heard. It was a different approach by the author to have the story
being told and then show what the character thought about it. I am not used to
using that format for story telling, but I do think it is a unique approach.
The title of Tall Tales of Beauty and the Beast
automatically struck me because Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorite stories
from my childhood. I liked that the story book was narrating the introduction. Since it is a popular story most people know the candle stick, teapot, and clock do most of the
narrating for the story line. By having the story book narrate I felt it kept my
interest in reading the rest of the stories. I wanted to know what was going to
happen. I liked the design of the pages and the images used. especially the one
representing the rose that was in the original Beauty in the Beast movie.
