Title: God of the Fairy Tale : Finding Truth in the Land of Make-Believe by JIM WARE ISBN: 0-87788-049-2 Publisher: Shaw Pub. Date: 21 October, 2003 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $12.99 |

Summary: Spiritual Truth
Comment: I found the universal themes of literature discussed in relationship with the universal state of man to be fascinating. The retelling of the crucial fairytale scenes at the beginning of a chapter captured my interest, then the delivery of a lucid analogy to a spiritual truth opened my eyes to a new interpretation of the familiar stories. This is a book to ponder and the way it is written makes the pondering enjoyable.
Rating: 5
Summary: Enriched and Enlivened
Comment: With a title and a cover like this, how can you not be intrigued. God...Fairy Tale...Do these belong together in the same phrase?
Ware tackles an issue long ignored by the Christian world: the truth that's inherent in myth and fable. He writes with clarity and beauty, shedding light on the lessons of life that pulse beneath the surface of numerous fairy tales. Not only does he give us deeper understanding of literary device and the original versions of many stories (for example, I was surprised by the real ending of "The Little Mermaid"), he helps us find spiritual meaning.
"God of the Fairy Tale" is a book that even a kid could appreciate, but it resonates with richness and insight. With short, palatable chapters, Ware divvies out his ideas and leaves us enriched and enlivened in the process.
