The Sleeping Beauty


The Sleeping Beauty is known as a Disney Classic. The retold story by Trina Scharthyman was a little different from the cartoon I remember, but it was the true original story. In this book, Briar Rose does not go and live with the three fairy women, but rather is blessed by all of them in the beginning. After that, they are no longer in the story. Also, the prince does not have to save the princess from any fire breathing dragon, but rather be able to simply find her in her kingdom and kiss her.

This book is an excellent fairy tale for any occasion, but the book itself had dark pictures with hard to read text.
