The Graphic Canon of Children's Literature

Description

Young people's literature through the ages is given new life for an adult audience by comics artists and illustrators. Fairy tales, fables, fantastical adventures, young adult novels, swashbuckling yarns, your favorite stories from childhood and your teenage years are adapted as short graphic stories. They're all here, in all their original complexity and strangeness, before they were censored or sanitized (including Red Riding Hood drinking her grandmother's blood).
