With gloriously cheerful art, a charming collection of four original fairy tales for elementary readers. A genie just wants a chance to grant a wish to the frog who accidentally let him out of his lamp - meanwhile, the frog just wants to be left alone. A witch is tormented by the cheerful (and awful) singing of a persistent bard, but when she finally snaps and turns him into a rock, he just keeps on singing - somehow the power of terrible music overcomes all magic. A wizard wants a pet. An ogre just wants to make beautiful art. Four original, wry, and utterly charming fairy tales comprise this new collection for young readers. With deft, lively text from Nathaniel Lachenmeyer and eye-popping, painterly art by Simini Blocker, 'The Singing Rock' is the perfect read for kids who love a good yarn - and good comics.
