(4) K-3 Illustrated by Pamela Silin-Palmer. In this generally entertaining retelling of the classic tale, the royal family is made up of bunnies in medieval garb, the good fairies are winged piglets, etc. Occasionally, the puns and overabundance of exclamation points disrupt the narrative flow; but the elaborate paintings, which feature bright colors on dark backdrops, convey humor without slighting the story's solemn elements.
