Editorial Review: It's not easy being Princess Rose. Especially when a fairy curses you and you find yourself avoiding all sharp objects . . . and then end up pricking your finger anyway, causing you to slumber for a hundred years or so. And it's not easy being The Prince. Especially when your mother has some ogre blood and tends to chow down at the most unfortunate moments. A walk in the woods would help, you think. Until you find a certain hidden castle . . . and a certain sleeping princess.

"I gazed down at her, asleep on her bed of feather pillows. Never before have I seen beauty like this. Even if mother had not long ago banned from the castle anything that might be pleasing to the eye, I would never have been prepared for this.

I enjoyed this retelling of the classic fairy tale, Sleeping Beauty, more than the original. The story is simply told (from two points of view, the Prince's and Rose's).

Rating: - A Fun Filled Twist on the original Fairy Tale
After read the first book in the series (which I loved), I bought this one immediately because I enjoyed the Rapunzel one immensly. I was never a big fan of the sleeping beauty story, but I thought I'd read it any way. And I am glad I did. The author makes the characters very real and very funny that you get swept away in their two tales. I also love hour the two main characters always end up having their stories tie in to each other's, and of course they always live happily ever after! What can I say? ... Read More

"I already know the story of Sleeping Beauty." you say to yourself. "Do I really need to read it again?" you ask. Well, let me help you out a little bit.
First, talking to yourself is a completely normal activity; you're not crazy. (Actually, I can't say that for sure, since I don't know you. That, however, is beside the point. Let's just say that talking to yourself is not the deciding factor in determining insanity.) Second, I'm willing to bet you only know half of the story at best.
