Rapunzel’s Revenge
Tuesday, December 8th, 2009 | Children, Ages 9-12
Rapunzel’s Revenge by Shannon Hale and Dale Hale, illustrator. New York, NY: Bloomsbury USA, 2008.
Ages 9-12
Graphic novel
Booktalk: I guess you know the story about Rapzunel letting down her hair and marrying a prince. What if Rapzunel meets Jack the Beanstalk? Try this comic book for a twisted tale of adventure.
Note to adult sponsors: This graphic novel is appealing because of its color graphics, hair-raising adventures, and strong female character. Of course, it ends happily as all folktales do. I recommended this for the middle school because of the word “pregnant” but, if this is no problem, add this one to younger library collections.
