Teaser Tuesday - Once Upon a Time: New Fairy Tales edited by Paula Guran

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of 
Should Be Reading. 
Rules:
• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

From: Once Upon a Time: New Fairy Tales edited by Paula Guran
Kindle version 12% through 
From "The Spinning Wheel's Tale" by Jane Yolen

"The story begins with spinning, spinning the wheel, spinning the curse, spinning the lies that lie at the heart of a mouth, a castle, a hedge. 
     And of course, it all begins with a witch."

    1. Yes, they are rewritten fairy tales. From what I've read so far, there is a variety of cultures and tales represented. It's been a lot of fun to read.
