It takes a new way of looking at things to come up with a new twist on a classic that has been read to everyone everywhere.

The simple premise is that Rapunzel escapes. If the witch can climb up the hair, why can't Rapunzel climb down the hair? That new twist makes this a worthwhile storybook for bedtime. In fact, why don't you combine this book with other tales of Rapunzel and have the kids compare, contrast, and talk about the differences. That's the new Common Core standards of education for you right there.

Great little book, however, the cover price seems a bit steep for what you're getting. The pictures, simplistic, are nice, but it is not like being presented with a real artistic treasure for that cover price.
