The Fairy Tale Fan Club by Richard Ayoade. Illustrated by David Roberts. Candlewick, 2024. Children's, Young Adult. Under the guise of "Legendary Letters collected by C.C. Cecily", this imaginative book has a collection of questions that children ask famous fairy and folk tale characters. The answers provide unusual insights into the tales and their characters. What a fun read! This would be an excellent choice for teachers of gifted students, too! The reading level does not cater to early readers, but it would work as a read-aloud for younger children. Young adults may hoot with laughter.
Coming up with email addresses for fairy tale characters and matching their illustrations to their names at the end are fun additions to the postcards and letters. Students will soon be writing their own letters to the Fairy Tale Fan Club!
