Sleeping Beauty ebook

Long ago, in a peaceful kingdom where fairies still moved between the human and magical worlds, a much-loved princess was born. But when an uninvited fairy casts a terrible spell, the child is destined to prick her finger on a spindle and fall into a deep sleep. Despite the king and queen's efforts to protect her, the prophecy comes true. The princess—and the entire castle—slumber behind an impenetrable forest of thorns for one hundred years. When a courageous young prince discovers the forgotten castle, an extraordinary awakening begins. Yet opening her eyes is only the beginning of the princess's journey: she must now learn to understand a world transformed by time and discover that kindness, friendship and courage never grow old. A tender and beautifully expanded retelling of the timeless fairy tale, adapted for a new generation of readers.
