Bookroo's summary

Maud, a gingerbread witch-in-training, accidentally unleashes a century-old sleeping curse on a princess's castle. With her quirky friends Gretel, Ludo, and Nuss the squirrel, she must find the princess's true love to break the spell. But as they navigate magical mishaps and unexpected challenges, the curse might be just the beginning of their troubles. Can Maud's magic and determination save the day, or will her mistakes lead to even greater chaos?

From the publisher

Sleeping Beauty is about to wake up. Maud may be made of gingerbread–plus a spark of magic–but she’s a real witch! Even if she’s still learning, and has a habit of making messes…and might have accidentally unleashed the hundred-year-old Class IV sleeping curse that envelops a princess’s bramble-covered castle. Oops. Maud has her friends Gretel, Ludo, and Nuss the hazelnut mousse squirrel to help her fix this. But it won’t be easy to find the sleeping princess’s true love, and the curse might end up being the least of their problems…
