Why read it?
1 author picked Once Upon A Fairytale as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I don’t normally go for ‘choose your own ending’ style books, but the O’Hara sisters have won me round. My 3-year-old never tires of this. All toddlers crave a bit of control, and this book gives them precisely that.
The language is imaginative. It pushes my son just a bit (so that I feel he’s learning) but not too much (so that he feels he’s having fun). Plus, the artwork is exquisite. It’s another book I think we’ll both remember sharing when he’s an adult.
