Synopsis

John Cech's enchanting retelling of 'Rapunzel' is the tale of a poor couple forced to surrender their newborn daughter to a powerful witch, all for having stolen some lettuce to satisfy the wife's unbearable hunger. And so the witch takes Rapunzel to a secluded tower, where the girl spends her days singing and braiding her long hair. Then, one day, a prince hears her sweet voice and everything changes... Complete with fanciful illustrations by Fiona Sansom, this beautiful book belongs on every fairy-tale lover's shelf.
