Hale, Shannon and Dean. (2008). Rapunzel’s Revenge. New York:
Bloomsbury.
A well known classic story presented in a
western time period. A brave cowboy
princess, Rapunzel builds curiosity to find out what lies behind a huge garden
wall surrounding her home. She lives with whom she believes is her mother. She
has never seen what is behind the wall. One day her curiousity leads her to
climb the great wall and brings her great dispair of what she sees. She is sent to live in a high tree by Gothel
as punishment for not obeying. She is
unable to escape but promises to one day discover the truth about her young
life. She meets jack and uses her long hair to climb down. Together they rescue
her real mother and put an end to Gothel.
This exposes children to diverse written
versions of classical stories.
