The mean fairy gave the gift to the princess that on her fifteenth birthday she would prick her finger on a spinning wheel and then immediately fall a sleep for one hundred years. All of them are wonderful, except for the last gift. There are many fairies that give gifts to the young princess. This book is kind of similar to the Disney version of Sleeping Beauty. There was some violence and gory parts, but it was still for the most part kid friendly.

This book is geared to the ages of 11-14. That book had other princess stories in it like Cinderella and Snow White.

The Sleeping Beauty story was actually apart of that book. I could compare this book to a book I read that had several fairy tales and short stories. This book is not apart of a series, but I am sure that there are other books similar to this. It is a classic, that was retold in a more kid friendly way.
