Bookroo's summary
In this whimsical twist on 'Sleeping Beauty,' a spiteful fairy curses a princess, but unexpected princes and mysterious fairy gifts complicate the tale. As the princess faces a hundred-year slumber, questions arise: Who is the extra prince, and what role do balding sheep play in this enchanted story? Discover a world where familiar elements are hilariously transformed, promising laughter and surprises at every turn.
From the publisher
A spiteful fairy. A beautiful princess. An outstretched finger. A spindle. A hundred-year snooze. A charming prince. A kiss. All the familiar ingredients. But wait! Where did that extra prince come from? And those fairy gifts that were never there before? And what does a flock of balding sheep have to do with anything? Gail Carson Levine has waved her magic wand over the old standby of “Sleeping Beauty” and presto! It reappears, transformed, sparkling and hilarious. Chuckles and giggles are guaranteed.
