Open this book, inside you'll see
a mean old troll and billy goats three,
a giant, three pigs, a smart little girl
and a big bad wolf with his head in a whirl.
So open this book and catch its drift,
'cos the Big Bad Raps oughta give you a lift.
Hilarious hip-hop retellings of traditional tales, from fairytales to horror stories!
