Falling For Rapunzel by Leah Wilcox

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Although not quite as funny or clever as Waking Beauty, Leah Wilcox wrote another winner with Falling for Rapunzel. I won't belabor the points I mentioned in my review of Waking Beauty but these books are a brilliant, funny and colorful take on classic princess stories. Since the idea of mentioning anything other than a princess story to my 3 year old is a mortal sin, I am grateful that I discovered these books on my most recent trip to the public library.

I enjoy that these stories don't depict the princesses as helpless as other children's books and will happily admit that these were funny enough to even catch a quick belly laugh from me. I often pretend to laugh at "funny" parts in my kid's books so that they will appreciate the humor but this time I didn't need to pretend.

Falling for Rapunzel is a fantastic children's book that is creative and original. It's a rhyming adventure that I actually enjoyed reading to my own little princess!
