As children we all grew up enjoying the sugar-coated stories of Mother Goose.  Who doesn’t remember the warm, tingly feeling of the great stories the age old feathered friend told, over and over?  But now we’re grown up.  We know the world isn’t really like the stories told to us as children.  There is no real prince charming out there.  People aren’t always smiling and happy.  Right? 

Well, if you’ve grown up knowing the tales of Mother Goose, you must read what her son, 300 years later, tells us.  Having the influences that we all had growing up, such as the real world stories we watched on television or read in the newspapers, Brother Goose gives a realistic version to some of the previously told tales we’ve heard.  Never before have you heard Cinderella told in this version!  The new tales Moore spins are much more realistic and definitely a lot more hilarious than those old boring tales of the bygone era!

Witty, humorous and filled with a lot more reality than ever before, these adult fairy tales will give you a touch of reality with a side of humor.
