If you’re looking for new bedtime stories to read to your kids, you may want to check out Stephen King’s latest book. Yes, normally that would be a pretty terrible recommendation, but the horror novelist’s new book is for children–and anyone who loves classic fairy tales. On Tuesday, HarperCollins published reimagined version of the classic Brothers Grimm fairy tale Hansel and Gretel. It’s available in hardcover for $21.53 (was $27) at Walmart and Amazon. Alternatively, you can have Stephen King read this bedtime story, as he narrated the audiobook edition.
Previously unpublished illustrations by the late Maurice Sendak accompany King’s words. Sendak, who died in 2012, wrote and illustrated many bestselling children’s books throughout his lengthy career. He’s best known for creating Where the Wild Things Are, which is widely considered one of the best picture books of all time. The new version of Hansel and Gretel was created in partnership with The Maurice Sendak Foundation.
