Great retelling of a little known English folk tale. Kellogg has a great sense of the comedic, both in his words and pictures.

This was one of my favorite folk tales growing up.

I'm not sure I like the layout of this book, in comic style, I think it's a little hard to read, but my nieces enjoy it and I haven't yet found a better edition of JUST this folk tale.

This is my last one for the day...this is our family's absolute favorite book to read together (which may give you some insite into our family that you may not have wanted :) We just have very silly boys and this book is filled with complete nonsense! 3 and up :)

The same story as Six Fools by Zora Neale Hurston with a few changes. Cute if you like Steven Kellogg's style of having speech bubble along with blocks of text.

Cute story; causes me to wonder if silly things are really silly as people say they are.
