Which little girl has not wanted to have long hair like Rapunzel after having read this story? This is a good adaptation except for the little shock I got at the end that Rapunzel had given birth to twins while roaming around in the forest. I'm not saying we all couldn't have guessed what she and the prince were up to alone in the tower but really...
I gave the book to my three year old niece as a birthday present and her mother was as surprised at the ending as I was. She quickly went back through the book and did find a line that said that Rapunzel had given the prince her hand in marriage, so a big sigh of relief there then!

Great Book
6 Dec 2006
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book is a great one. What I particularly like about this book versus the many other "Rapunzel" books you can buy is that the illustrations are so catching. They are realistic and yet very bright and eye catching. The illustrations work together with the words on the page.
The story itself is the traditional "Rapunzel" story.

Not a book for Children, or adults
30 Jan 2008
Format:Paperback
I was very disappointed in this story. I wanted to rate this no stars, but amazon required a minimum of one for rating. It is not what I remember as a child and after reading it once to my child, the book is no longer in my home. It was frightening and disturbing. I purchased it because we loved the other books in the Keepsake Story series - which some also have witches and make references to death, but this was the worst we read.
Good rendition of classic fairy tale
2 Sep 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
It's very difficult to find fairy tales that are appropriate for preschoolers -- either they're "uncensored" and too close to the original, dark versions, or they're too long and wordy to keep a young child's attention. This one is great because it's direct, simple, but well-written. The story isn't all sugar cones and candy canes, but it's not as brutal as the original Grimm and Andersen versions either. The pictures are beautiful. My four-year-old loves this book, and has started quoting "Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair!" at the most random moments. Great find, and we have enjoyed several of the other books in this series as well.
