1/27/2010 Wendy Popp said: This a lovely twist on Sleeping Beauty. Princes Florecita journeys to wake an enchanted sleeping prince. John tied many lovely references of many fairytales into this book, and he gave the heroine great courage and determination.
tags: I illustrated this and would recommend it for any young lady who wants to embark on an adventure..
