I would definitely recommend this book for adults to read as each story has an almost childhood memory attached to it. This sense of an almost distant memory constantly lingers and familiarity is embedded throughout. The impact of the book straying from these warm fuzzy feelings instantly affects you and you almost feel as the characters in the stories do. Cold and straying from the path.

Compare to other fairy tales: Look at similarities and differences eg. Cinderella, look at language which is similar to the genre Needless to say, I think Jamila Gavin has a worthy goal in creating this collection and the stories here are incredibly valuable – as well as beautifully written and illustrated. My favourite story in this collection was 'The Purple Lady'. This is because of the large amount of mystery and adventure that the tale included. This was effective as it allowed me to create an image in my mind of what it would be like to be in the tale and also left me wanting to find out what was going to happen next. This early season potato has purple skin and yellowish white flesh. The tubers are round, with a nutty flavor. I think the illustrations in the book really add to the story. A really fun activity for children could be drawing what they think a character looks like from the description in the book, and then comparing it to what is in the novel.
