BEANSTALKER, by Kiersten White

The story: If you're tired of the same old/same old when it comes to fairy tales, pick up a copy of "Beanstalker & Other Hilarious Scary Tales". You'll meet vampire Snow White, zombie Dead Riding Hood--and the list goes on! Check it out...if you're not too scared. ;)

Liz's comments: Although I thought the jokes here were a little labored, MS readers probably WILL think they're pretty hilarious. Good for grades 4-7.
