There's more to Rapunzel than excellent hair A defiant twist on a classic fairy tale from award-winning creator, Bethan Woollvin. Golden-haired princess Rapunzel is kept trapped in her lofty tower by a wicked witch, who lops off locks of her beautiful hair and sells them for her own profit. Can Rapunzel ever figure out a way to escape? From celebrated author-illustrator of Little Red, a 2016 New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book, comes another witty twist on a favourite tale. Bold and infinitely funny, Rapunzel removes the handsome prince altogether, making our heroine the mistress of her own destiny! Printed with stunning pantone inks, Bethan Woollvin's unique and striking artwork paired with her signature dry humour makes this the perfect gift for fairy tale fans of all ages. Praise for Rapunzel: "Author-illustrator Bethan Woollvin returns to enthrall picture-book fans with a retelling of Rapunzel in her characteristic, starkly beguiling graphic black and white. The contrasting waves of Rapunzel's hair, in over-saturated buttery yellow, light up a heroine every bit as defiant, quick-witted and tough as Woollvin's award-winning Little Red." -The Guardian "This is Rapunzel as you've never seen her before. Rising star Woollvin dispatches with the prince and lets her golden-haired princess rely on courage and wits to thwart her witchy captor. A dark, witty and playful retelling with a wonderfully feminist twist."
