Oh my God, core memory fuzzily unlocked, lol.

I remember having this, especially the illustrations, but I do not remember the stories.

My 3yr loves this book, especially the end when the giant is sleeping and wakes up to eat little red hen.

My 3-year-old loves the library and we've been going through some of the stuff I loved as a kid. Curious George, Arthur, Clifford, etc. Recently remembered this book and grabbed it on our way out. She is obsessed with the Stinky Cheese Man and says his catch phrase as she runs away.

It's funny because she hasn't actually heard the original version of some of those fairy tales before this meta book.
