Roses were very dangerous for Sleeping Beauty—that everybody knows. But do you know other flower beauties from her garden as well? This combination of encyclopedia and fairy tale will help you!
Far, far away after crossing nine mountains and nine rivers lived a charming princess Sleeping Beauty and her great passion was gardening and taking great care of all plants that surrounded her palace. The princess was cursed when she pricked her finger on a thorn one day. She fell fast asleep, and the entire garden became shrouded in brier roses, hawthorn, and weeds.
How will the charming princess save her garden? Discover the princess’s story, and find out about the wonderful world of gardening with this richly illustrated book with seven gatefolds on each spread.
This new release is a creative new format twist for nonfiction meets fiction books. The story is a light retelling of Sleeping Beauty with a heavy focus on her garden. The fun twist is that every page spread opens up to a large, nonfiction page that features the types of plants that were mentioned in the story and shares some interesting facts about them. (You can see what I am trying to describe with this format in my Instagram Stories. Just tap on my profile picture). Definitely an innovative and fun one! --Book Nerd Mommy IG
