Once Upon a More Enlightened Time: More Politically Correct Bedtime Stories
reviewed on + 1775 more book reviews


A sequel, the author still seeks to eliminate 'biases and prejudices' from the tales we all read as kids. There are seven stories.
I enjoyed The Princess and the Pea, it being well-written and amusing. The stories are probably best enjoyed by English majors and others with a good vocabulary.
From The Tortoise and the Hare: "So confident was the hare in his sulocity prerogative over the tortoise that he decided to accept the invitation of one of the film crew and grant an interview about his mid-race thoughts, reminiscences of childhood, and hopes for the future."
