What do fairy-tales have to do with our faith? What can we see in their stories? In Good Night Classics, C. S. Fritz takes your family on a fairy-tale journey through God’s Good News.

More to See in Simple Stories

With ten retellings of fairy tale classics, this book shares the story of redemption in a beautifully enchanting and deeply engaging way. By using Pinocchio’s story as a framework to piece the narratives together, you will experience classic fairy-tales as fresh and new.

What most interested me were the truths that were highlighted in each story. Jack and the Beanstalk is a tale of greed, Hansel and Gretel is a tale of temptation, while The Lion and the Mouse is a tale of kindness. You will find that there is more to see in these simple stories.

The Greatest Author of All

What I most appreciate is Fritz’ decision to keep some of the darker elements within the tales. Giants and witches have bad intentions. And The Boy Who Cried Wolf ends on a somber note. But in doing so, the light of truth shines all the brighter.

Discussion prompts are included to help you go deeper into the lessons and themes. This book will draw you in with beautiful illustrations and Fritz’ winsome way with words. You will come away charmed with wonder, inspired and in awe of the greatest Author of all.

I received a media copy of Good Night Classics and this is my honest review.

Really enjoyed reading this aloud with the kids. The classic tales were close to the original versions, with gospel truths interwoven. I especially loved the corresponding Bible passage and discussion questions at the end of each chapter
