Once Upon a Punchline - Schindler, Holly

. .

Résumé :
Once upon a time, in a land far, far away... you were a child. And fairy tales were delightful stories that insisted life wasn't scary and overwhelming, but magical and sweet. Oh, there were happy endings galore-not to mention plenty of helpful godmothers and wands locked and loaded with life-changing sparkles. Come on-admit it! That was pretty great. Now, you're an adult. And let's admit this: adulthood isn't quite as swell as you'd once hoped it would be. What if you could explore this (ahem) more mature era of life through the same rose-tinted magical lens of a fairy tale? Once Upon a Punchline is a humorous collection of stories-a little bit parody, a little bit fable, a little bit allegory-and a whole lot of laughs, all aimed at poking fun at the silliness in this era of life called... adulthood.
