Rapunzel

Praise

“The blocky gouache illustrations in gray and black, strategically accented with yellow. . . heighten the timbre, suggesting both deviousness and joy. . . . Empowerment in leaps and bounds.”—Kirkus Reviews

“Children will adore Rapunzel and cheer her victory over evil personified. A perfect length for storytime and those seeking fairy tale variants.”—School Library Journal

“Utilizing simple, bold strokes of yellow, black, and gray inks, Woollvin expressively fills each page with eye-catching details that will bring readers back for another look. Fans of her Little Red (2016) will enjoy this latest feisty and intelligent heroine.”—Booklist

“It’s about time that Rapunzel saved herself, and in Woollvin’s sly follow-up to 2016’s Little Red, she does exactly that. . . . Thanks to Woollvin, readers may grow up thinking this just-wicked-enough retelling is the classic one; if they ever stumble across versions with the prince, they may wonder why he was thought necessary.”—Publishers Weekly
