Tales My Father Told Me*: *When Mother Wasn't Home

By E R Morris

In this original collection of short stories, author E. R. Morris updates classic nursery rhymes and fairytales with a modern, grown-up bent. Written with other adults in mind-especially grandparents-Morris gives these well-worn tales a wry sardonic spin, often asking how they might change if they were set today.

Threaded through these mature re-tellings is a constellation of fascinating historical information about their origins. Deftly weaving these facts in with these ironic re-tellings, Morris offers a truly unique collection sure to inspire laughter and eyebrow-raising for the grown-ups familiar with the originals, who might just learn something along the way, too.
