A review by dandelionfluff
Fairy Tales by E.E. Cummings

5.0

The Old Man Who Said "Why" is filled with little turns of phrase that made me smile. The ending was probably the most interesting part with the way it just drops off (literally).

The Elephant and the Butterfly was so beautifully simple. My adult mind kept saying "oh no, I hope nothing bad happens, I hope nothing bad happens." But you know what? It doesn't. Just goes to show you what all that literature has done to my brain. I can't even anticipate a sweet perfect story.

The House That Ate Mosquito Pie may sound dreadful, but it's another tale that is just so sweet that I can barely describe my affection for it in words!

And Finally, The Little Girl Named I is a funny play on words all the way through.

Each and every story is very sweet. Definitely one of my favorite books.
