Product Description A tremendous whooshing noise started up. It sounded like a million pages being riffled at once. I caught a strong whiff of gingerbread. Then The Complete Fairytales of the Brothers Grimm flew open and a human-shaped blur came shooting out Basil Beedon and Terry Clegg are neighbours, and that’s all they have in common. Terry loves sport and Basil loves books but to Basils absolute dismay, hes been roped into helping Terry with his reading. Every. Single. Saturday. However, that’s the least of his worries when Gretel comes shooting out of The Complete Fairytales of the Brothers Grimm.
