"The small girl smiles. One eyelid flickers. She whips a pistol from her knickers." Fairytales as you've never seen them before! Gruesome and grisly, dastardly and daring, these Revolting Rhymes turn familiar stories topsy-turvy. Maybe Cinderella decides against her prince? Perhaps Jack outwits the giant in an unexpected way? No-one is safe - not Snow-White nor Goldilocks, and the Big Bad Wolf better watch out, because Little Red Riding Hood won't go down without a fight...
