Revitalized Fairy Tale & Classic Story Collection

Help me give my students classic fairy tale books. We have some classic works already in the library, but most of them are old and unappealing to students.

My Project

Fairy tales have fed the imaginations of children for ages and our young readers love the versions that they have seen on television, movies, or shelves at home. I've had many students ask for Sleeping Beauty or Cinderella only to change their minds once they look at the version of the story that we have. Many of our classic stories were published in the 1980s and the covers have faded to such a degree that they are barely recognizable and, like it or not, students are constantly judging books by their covers. I'd love to provide students with new titles that they will find attractive and engaging.
