Sleeping Beauty

Even before stories were written down, young and old have been enchanted by the tale of the beautiful princess who pricked herself and fell into a deep sleep. At that moment, a thicket of briars grew tall and wide around her court and castle, enveloping it with mystery. Here amidst light, shadow and magic emerge the drama of a king's decision, an angry thirteenth fairy, a prince undaunted by a wall of brambles, and a lovely princess, fast asleep. The magic and romance of her story come splendidly to life with Kinuko Craft's rich artistry, promising to keep Sleeping Beauty's story forever in the hearts of children, and this precious edition a treasure for years to come.
