What does the Pageticker team say about Rapunzel?

Stephanie Stansbie gives this familiar fairy tale a lively, modern twist by making Rapunzel an inventive problem-solver rather than a princess waiting to be rescued. Loretta Schauer’s bright illustrations bring plenty of charm to the tower-bound adventure, while themes of courage, freedom and clever thinking make this a good choice for younger children who enjoy classic stories with a little extra independence.
