Again I won‘t use a brothers Grimm book in the classroom even with other child because they are very dark book. However there are kid friendly versions of this story out there but the story is still pretty dark.

Spider in the Well | Jess Hannigan

If you‘re looking for something along the lines of Jon Klassen‘s picture books, try this dark & funny fable by Canadian artist Jess Hannigan. It‘s great for kids aged 3-8 anytime, but the black & fluorescent orange colour scheme, plus the spider, make this perfect for a spooky October read. #kidlit

Sisters of the Neversea | Cynthia L. Smith

I love this middle grade Peter Pan retelling by Muscogee Creek author Cynthia Leitich Smith. It focuses on two stepsisters & addresses racism straightforwardly in the text. Wendy & Lily immediately speak up when Peter or the Lost boys use the word ‘Injun,‘ for example. On many occasions the omniscient narrator breaks the fourth wall & addresses readers directly—I like that too. A fun read with satisfying depth. #Indigenous #kidlit

Lindy Cover art is by the late (great!) Muscogee artist Floyd Cooper (1956-2021). (edited) 2mo
Cuilin Do I need another Peter Pan retelling? No. Stacking anyway. 🧚 2mo
Lindy @Cuilin It‘s a treat. Belle (Tinkerbell) gets interesting backstory and character development, just to mention one thing. 🧚 2mo
