BR 2-18: Sleeping Beauty

"You're the prince I drew!" (Knighton, 2006, p. 45)

Sleeping Beauty


I chose this book because I was attracted this cover. This book's illustration is beautiful, I think. I want to read this book. Beauty princess Rose and handsome prince were drawn in cover, and it is romantic. This story is romantic too.

One day, a king and a queen's baby Rose born. At the celebrate party, seven fairies have some wishes for princess as presents. Seven fairies said the seven wishes for princess. And then, the mean fairy Nightshade appeared and she wished Rose "On your sixteenth birthday, you will prick your finger on a spinning wheel and DIE!". Everyone had shocked. So the seventh fairy wished "but you won't die. What is happen for princess after that?

This book is Usborne young reading: series one. This story was retold by Kate Knighton, illustrated by Jana Costa. Series editor is Lesly Sims, designed by Katarina Dragoslavic. This book is short story (about 50 pages) so I think it is easy to read this book. Please this book someday!
