'My Marvel-obsessed kids immediately dove into this book and devoured it. I love that these stories put a spin on the classic fables that we all remember from our youth by incorporating characters that resonate with children. The end of each passage details the moral that is incorporated in the story, which I think is a nice touch.'--- Ashley Zickar, NetGalley reviewer
