August 20, 2005: Cats always seem at home in the fantasy (and horror) genre at least in this reviewer?s mind since the 1950s Bell, Book, and Candle so a genre match-up seems natural. This fourteen-book collection stars felines as key players in new renditions of children?s fairy tales that target young and aging alike. The contributors are a virtual who?s who of fantasy as popular children?s tales are turned by their tail. Just a few titles to further explain the lead cat: ?Ali Babette?, ?All the Pigs Houses?, ?Sleeping Beauties?, ?The Cobwebbed Princess?, and ?Cat-Friend?, etc. The tales of the tails is a lot of fun for fantasy fans, and of course feline lovers, and cats (trust me they must be able to read if they reside in my house ? if they could only review).
