The Funny Fairy Tales series by Reut Barak retells classic stories with humor. All six books published in 2017, covering Snow White, Cinderella, Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretel, Rapunzel, and Sleeping Beauty.
Each book takes a well-known fairy tale and reworks it for laughs. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs opens the series, followed by Cinderella, Red Riding Hood, and Hansel and Gretel. Rapunzel and Sleeping Beauty round things out. The comedic angle means the villains are less scary and the heroes are more confused than brave.
The books are aimed at younger readers who already know the traditional versions. Barak uses that familiarity as a setup, then delivers jokes that only work because the audience knows how the story is supposed to go. The entire series released in 2017, so all six are available now.
