The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales has a recursive story. I can't remember how it goes exactly, but its something like:
The Giant tells the Englishman that he's going to grind his bones when the Englishman finishes his tale, so the Englishman tells the tale about where the Giant tells the Englishman that he's going to grind his bones when the Englishman finishes his tale, so the Englishman tells the tale about where the Giant tells the Englishman that he's going to grind his bones when the Englishman finishes...
It contains other irreverent takes on classic fairy tales.
Nice. Especially so because of the catcha that it has to go on infinitely for a happy end.
