“Daniel Morden has the timing of a comedian and the insight of a poet! Join him as he tells a ripping set of oddly twisted and macabre fairytales: Princesses grow horns, sibling rivalry gets way out of hand, body-parts get misplaced, riddles are unriddled and quick wit saves the day.”

From the Woods, by Daniel Morden
“Three favourite Crick Crack Club storytellers reveal some of the sauciest, naughtiest and down-right rudest, fairytales they know. Always comedic & often strange, this is a rare treat to hear the stories that never usually get past the censor!”
