Politically correct bedtime stories by James Finn GarnerChris's Review: Once upon a time....we were all told amazing and wonderful fairy tales about Goldilocks, Cinderella, Rapunzel, and many others. We dreamed of the day our prince would come and rescue us, or the day the big bad wolf was defeated. Well, in this book of politically correct bedtime stories, these things never happen. These are the modern tales for our modern lives and times. Politically correct they definitely are! The endings will astound you as well as make you laugh out loud. Mr. Garner has a witty way with words and it was a joy to read this short little book of quirky stories. I recommend this book for it's humor and creativeness.
