Product Description:
Master storyteller Neil Gaiman presents a breathtaking collection of tales for younger readers that may chill or amuse, but that always embrace the unexpected:
- Humpty Dumpty's sister hires a private detective to investigate her brother's death.
- A teenage boy who has trouble talking to girls finds himself at a rather unusual party.
- A boy raised in a graveyard makes a discovery, and confronts the much more troubling world of the living.

A collection designed to be kid friendly, big print, lots of spaces between lines, all that stuff. A not too bad selection at 3.30.
Call the book a 3.25.

Although this book is aimed at a younger market, I found it extremely entertaining. Nail Gaiman is one of the most amazing writers of our time (if you enjoy the genres he writes in). Buy EVERY book he's written - and try some of his movies!

This collection, like Smoke and Mirrors before it, is both a wonderful introduction to Neil Gaiman and a delightful treat for those who already know him. The short stories collected here are not all brand new (Chivalry, Troll Bridge), but there's some 2006 and 2007 short stories you may not have read before.
Regardless, the tone and style provides a great example of this master writer's skill and range. If you've been wondering why people make a fuss over Gaiman, start here.

This small anthology contains 10 short stories and one bad poem. It clearly presents itself as a children's book (for "ages 10 and up" according to the flap), and many of the stories were apparently selected for elements that many superficially associate with Children's Literature, such as child protagonists, a sentient toy, a heroic animal, a mythical creature or some nursery rhyme references.
However, the pretence that this is a Children's Book is a cynical marketing deception. ... Read More

Ever since the "Sandman" happened, Neil Gaiman has been 'hip' & 'hot'. The symphony of enthusiasm for his works reached a crescendo with the "American Gods", which had propelled me to buy this book. But, this book was quite below-par in terms of the impressions that a reader is bound to have after reading them. There are a few cute stories that you might feel like going through again & again, like "Chivalry" (an old lady and her finding of 'Holy Grail'). There are stories which just make you feel ...
