Fractured Fairy Tales

Summary: This book had me giggling from beginning to end.
Review: Fractured Fairy tales has some of the funniest fairytales that I've read. Though it's not a book you'll read straight through from beginning to end, I found myself pulling it out every time I needed a pick me up. The stories are very witty, and you'll have a good time reading it.

Summary: Not What I Expected But Still Good
Review: I bought "Fractured Fairy Tales" thinking I was going to get the original fairy tales that were in "The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show" instead; I got a modern version of the fairy tales they were not as good as the original but were still good just the same. I suggest that if u want the original stories save your money and watch the reruns but if you just want I good laugh buy this book.

Summary: Classic cartoon stories with 90's update?
Review: I bought the book hoping for reasonable reproductions of the original "Fractured Fairy Tales" from Bullwinkle. For example, Pinocchio wakes up and wants a cup of "Joe"? Come on, how nineties can you get? That is just one example of how the original fractured fairy tales have been bastardized by this book.

Summary: Great Laughs!
Review: I bought this book for my dad for hannukkah and he LOVED it! It really brought us closer as a family, every night he would read one story to the family and each night we would beg for more! I just thought that this book is so wonderful. If you feel bad it gives you a good laugh, if your happy and you just want to read it then its great also! I HIGHLY recommend this book!

Summary: A.J. Jacobs is cute
Review: I met him at the Weinerschnitzel on East 18th Street in Antioch, Calif., back in the early 1990s. He took me home and, well, dammit, I can't wait to introduce him to our lust child, Maryanski Misialowski Curmudgeon Jacobs. God I miss him. Oh, and like all his books, it's great because you can finish it right there in the store and save your money. Oh, but it has to be one of those stores that sells coffee, too, because, man, is it the definition of what some reviewers might call "a sleeper" -- if you know what I mean.

Summary: Funny, but you can't beat the originals
Review: I, like most reviewers, was shocked to see that this book, based off the hilarious segments of the same name from the 60's "Rocky and Bullwinkle" show, has taken a 90's twist (did they feel the need to compete with "Politcally Correct Bedtime Stories"?) Nevertheless, this book is still funny in usual FFF form. i.e. In "Beauty and the Beast", our "beauty" is only pretty when she sits on her donkey. As soon as she pops off "POOF"!- she's a bowser again. The charming prince has only seen her on her donkey, so they get married with her on the mule and for the better part of their marriage...only to find that her "prince" is quite the uggo himself once he jumps off his horse. A match made in heaven!
You'll get 25 classic tales twisted in FFF fashion, but be prepared for an updated version than the series on Bullwinkle provided. It does tend to tarnish the original charm, but is still pretty funny. A nice nostalgic gift for any Bullwinkle/FFF fan.
