What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is very gentle and avoids sensitive topics. Any peril from the original folktales (like the Gingerbread Man being eaten or the troll threatening the goats) is handled in a brief, non-graphic, and low-stakes manner. The approach is metaphorical, teaching simple lessons with resolutions that are always hopeful and clear-cut.
