SYNOPSIS:
What if your favorite nursery rhymes grew up—and got a little more real?
Step into Bales & Logs, a one-of-a-kind community where pigs file noise complaints, the Tooth Fairy hosts cash-prize contests, and Muffet runs the local neighborhood watch (arachnophobes beware!).
In Nursery Rhymes Reimagined, classic tales get a modern twist filled with laughter, love,
and a little bit of tea.
Author Denise Masten breathes new life into the rhymes we thought we knew, with stories that celebrate family, resilience, and the beautiful mess of everyday life. Whether it’s a foster parent living in a shoe, a front-porch lullaby remix, or Little Boy Blue catching Zs instead of sheep, this collection brings fresh perspective and heart to beloved traditions.
Perfect for adults who grew up on nursery rhymes—and kids curious about what really went down in those fairy tale hoods. Pull up a rocking chair, pour some Lavender Earl Grey tea, and enjoy the remix!
