This is not an ordinary book: it's a BookCrossing book! BookCrossing books are world travelers - they like to have adventures and make new friends...and with your help, they can even write home to say what they've been doing! (You may remain anonymous if you wish.)

Hardcover with vellum dust jacket; sized like a graphic novel but isn't one.

Not quite any of the fairy tales I grew up with: this one has a Neil Gaiman twist or six plus lots of gorgeously detailed Chris Riddell illustrations.

Reserved for a wishlist tag.

I'm so glad you've found this book! Won't you make a journal entry so the previous readers know that it's safe with you?

How and where did you find the book? What did you think of it? What are you going to do with it next?

This is now your book, for you to do with as you please: keep it as long as you wish, pass it to a friend, or maybe even leave it where someone else can find it!

If you've ever wondered where your books go after they leave your hands, join BookCrossing and you may find out: you'll be able to follow your books as new readers make journal entries - sometimes from surprisingly far-flung locations.

BookCrossing: making the whole world a library!

Arrived safely in NJ yesterday. Thank you so much for tagging me with this wishlist book. It looks like a good read and a fun read...which I need right now. Placing on the top of Mt TBR.

My review: I enjoyed this unique retelling of Sleeping Beauty. I loved the illustrations. A fast and enjoyable read as I read it in one sitting. This tale involves a sleeping spell that has been passing through town and putting all the citizens and animals to sleep. Three dwarfs and a queen from another kingdom come to her rescue and save everyone. No prince involved.

This is now traveling to the winner of my bookbox raffle, booklady331. I hope you enjoy it! =) Happy Reading and Happy BookCrossing!

What a wonderful surprise!! The bookbox arrived today and there were 12 books. You are so generous, my BC friend. I am so blessed by you.

Thanks for the bookmakers. I love the drawings.

This was a cute spin on an old take. The illustrations are beautifule.

Enjoy! A KTM RABCK to babypooh
