Adam Gidwitz

Adam Gidwitz, the author behind 'A Tale Dark and Grimm', is renowned for his creative retelling of classic fairy tales, often incorporating elements of gore and violence. These aspects of his storytelling, while artistically crafted, may not be suitable for all young readers, particularly those who are more sensitive to intense or frightening content. Gidwitz’s approach to these traditional stories brings a unique perspective, but it is one that comes with a level of intensity that may surpass the comfort zone of some children. Parents are advised to closely review his books and consider their child’s readiness for such themes.

We do not encourage book banning nor censoring, but instead aim to help the adults in a child’s life make informed decisions about which content is appropriate for their child. This is why we have chosen not to include subjective analysis on books – our community simply identifies potentially offensive content and leaves it to you to decide whether or not it is age-appropriate for your child.
