The Princess and Mr. Whiffle by Patrick Rothfuss

While Patrick Rothfuss claims that this book is not a children's book, I think he's actually quite wrong. The book would be fine for children, I think, along the lines of the original Grimm's Fairy Tales. I mean--I'm not saying I'd let kids read it without guidance, and it is a little dark, but I think when people hear "not for children" they end up disappointed. This is a lovely little book. I'd say worth buying for Rothfuss fans, and worth checking out for the rest of y'all.
