An innovative new Once Upon a Time tie-in book has been released, which features the classic tales Snow White, Hansel and Gretel, Little Red Cap and more, along with the pilot script for the show and a foreword by the producers!

On December 20, this impressive book was released, which collects 30 classic fairytale stories and includes illustrations by Kevin Tong. The description from Amazon.com reads:

“Once upon a time . . .” Four simple words that, after more than two centuries, still have the ability to transport readers to lands of mystery, intrigue, and betrayal, life and death, love and abandon. Timeless are the tales of the Brothers Grimm who, in an effort to preserve native folklore, unwittingly crafted a cornerstone of Western literature.

With this book of fairy tales, beautifully illustrated by artist Kevin Tong, reacquaint yourself with the stories and characters you know and love. Run through the forest with Little Red Cap. Attend the ball with Cinderella. Eat an apple with Snow White. From witches to fairies, evil queens to kindly kings, frog princes and sleeping beauties, the Grimm tales are classics that are truly meant to be shared with young and old alike.

With a foreword written by the creators of ABC’s show Once Upon a Time, we see that these classic tales continue to endure and inspire more storytelling. The series brings some of these classic characters to life in a bold reimagination of the fairy tale world. We invite you to reacquaint yourself with these magical stories and be transported once again with Once Upon a Time.

And if you purchase the eBook, you also get a special enhancement: the full pilot episode’s script from Once Upon a Time! This is a pretty cool collection, so if you’re looking to catch up on your fairytale knowledge, this book will be well worth checking out. The book is published by Hyperion and is 272 pages long.
