Why I love this book:
Once again Schwartz has turned a classic fairytale into a ninja tushy kicking adventure story. The story is told in rhyme which keeps a nice flow, even through the battle scenes.

Of course the gorgeous artwork of Dan Santat makes the narrative come alive. His illustrations are bold, colorful, funny and extremely appealing. This is probably why he is in constant demand!
