Book Description Hardcover. Condition: NEW - COLLECTIBLE. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. Text/NEW & Bright. 1995, Collectible, First Edition, 1st Printing. Gilt embossed bi-color boards/Fine. DJ/Fine. Follow-up to the 1994 bestseller, My Correct Bedtime Stories: Modern Tales for Our Life & Times from James Finn Garner (1961 -). This edition, 84 pgs, preceded by a Politically Correct Alphabet, in 8 chapters. Satirical, re-told, demeaning, culturally biased, traditional fairy tales (some, 300 years old) long used to instill moral, socio-political messages to the very young, w/humour & political correctness, include : 1, Hansel & Gretel; 2, The Ant & the Grasshopper, 3, the Princess & the Pea; 4, The Little Mermaid; 5, The Tortoise & the Hare; 6, Puss in Boots; 7, The Sleeping Princess; and 8, Aesop's The City Mouse & the Country Mouse. Revisions employ usage of politically correct buzzwords (and parodies), deliberately including modern concepts & objects (such as health spas, mineral water, cars etc), along w/plots reversing the roles of the heroes & villains. Tales, though modified, remain recognizable although no longer offensive to women, gays, short people, minorities, giants, or wolves, as well as details that might encourage aggression, cruelty, sexism & prejudice.
