Falling for Rapunzel by Leah Wilcox
'Once upon a bad hair day, A prince rode up Rapunzel's way'. As the prince rides past Rapunzel's tower he hears the sound of a damsel in distress - Rapunzel's beautiful hair has lost its shine! The prince, convinced she is in need of his help, sets out to save her in the traditional way but this is no ordinary princess! She throws down everything except her curly locks - including a surprise that makes all his dreams come true. An hilarious tale of how misunderstandings can lead to 'happily ever after'.

"This irreverent spoof . . . plays with words, rhyme, and fairy-tale conventions with obvious delight. Listeners will certainly call out for more." —The Horn Book
