Twice Upon a Time: a guide to fractured, altered and retold folk and fairy tales by Bomhold and Elder has recently been added to the professional collection at the Central Library. It proved very useful to my coworker in putting together a bulk loan for a teacher doing a unit on fractured fairy tales.
This reference guide is organized by story; each entry contains a 1-2 pg synopsis of the tale, followed by an annotated list of other versions of the story. Includes: Beauty and the Beast, The Boy Who Cried Wolf, The Brave Little Tailor, The Bremen Town Musicians, Cinderella, The Country Mouse and the City Mouse, The Emperor's New Clothes, Goldilocks, Hansel and Gretel, Jack and the Beanstalk, The Little Red Hen, The Pancake, The Princess and the Pea, Rapunzel, Red Riding Hood, Rumpelstiltskin, The Shoemaker and the Elves, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Stone Soup, The Three Billy Goats Gruff, The Three Little Pigs, Tortoise and the Hare, The Turnip, The Twelve Dancing Princesses, The Ugly Duckling and The Wolf and the Seven Little Kids.
