Fairy Tales have sparked interest in readers and writers since days Medieval. Herein, is a collection of stories based on well-known tales of faerie. As with the Brothers Grimm, some stories are light and aerie, while others follow a darker path.Draw a chair close to the fire, warmed cider in hand, and let yourself be carried into the realm of fairyland.First up, is Rumpelstiltskin. Not an easy name to say, let alone spell. We’ll call him Rom. Rather than a goblin eager to devour a newborn baby, our Rom has come to help. But who has he come for? And will they survive long enough to win happily ever after?Our next story is The Pied Piper. Children are disappearing. Morgan and Dale must search out the truth to save them, even though they may lose what is most precious to them. Difficult battles are worth the fight. Will saving the children be worth their sacrifices?Story three is Beast. We all love a Beauty and the Beast tale. This one is sure to please.The fourth story is Sleeping Beauty’s Potion. Sleeping Beauty isn’t to blame that a dark fairy placed a sleeping curse on her. But with a special potion, she isn’t the one to sleep. Another lies on the bed in her stead until life has been drained. As long as a sacrifice remains, Sleeping Beauty will enjoy her youthful life. Is there no one who can bring an end to her wicked plot?The final story in Once Upon a Time in Fairyland is The Frog Curse. Catherine unwittingly finds herself a victim to a longstanding curse, one that turns its host into a frog. Unwilling to allow the curse to move to another victim, can Catherine escape the curse or is she fated to disappear into the misty wetlands forever?
