They have been rewriting our history and literature for awhile now. I can handle rewritten fairy tales to make them G rated (think old Disney) vs. what is going on now.
Russell Brand rewrites fairy tales 'to change the way children see the world'
Trickster Tales, a series of children's books illustrated by Chris Riddell, will kick off this autumn with The Pied Piper of Hamelin
Fresh from penning a call to revolution, Russell Brand is embarking on a series of children's books in which the comedian will share his own interpretation of classic fairy stories because "once we start changing the way children see the world, oh we can do all sorts of stuff".
Brand announced his venture into children's literature on YouTube late on Tuesday. The series, to be called Trickster Tales, will be illustrated by the award-winning artist Chris Riddell, and will kick off with Brand's take on The Pied Piper of Hamelin in autumn, from publisher Canongate.
