stories in a book that targets anyone who giggles when a tale takes
a surprising turn, from middle grade readers through their adult

traditional text and illustrations and even a graphic novel. And
all of the stories lean toward the edge of the twisted: told from
unexpected perspectives; not about what you thought they were; head
off in a direction you weren't counting on. And here's hoping you
never see it coming. Blindsided. Time to giggle.
