The cover has been revealed for Ransom Riggs’ Tale of the Peculiar short story collection. This book contains ten fairy tales set in the universe of the Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children series.

Here’s more from the press release: “Arriving mere weeks before the Tim Burton helmed movie adaptation hits theatres on September 30, 2016, Tales of The Peculiar will have a first print run of 1,000,000 copies. September 3 is known to the legions of fans of Ransom Riggs’s #1 bestselling Miss Peregrine series as ‘Loop Day.’ In the story, Miss Peregrine’s home is located in a September 3, 1940 time loop. Every day, the clocks reset just before the peculiars’ island home is bombed by German forces, keeping them forever safe from catastrophe.”
