Ninja Tales
Every year, I save fractured tales for the end of the year. We read the original, then 2 or 3 fractured versions and create a chart showing which parts of the tales have been changed, or fractured, from the original.
As I was gathering books for this year's Fractured Fairy Tale Extravaganza, I decided I needed a few new ones. Scrolling through Amazon, I came across these two ninja variations by Corey Rosen Schwartz. My Kinders and first graders thought they were hilarious!
The poor wolves in these stories get schooled by these unlikely ninjas and everyone learns the importance of hard work and dedication.
