A witty twist on a favourite fairy tale, this bold and funny story removes the handsome prince altogether, making Rapunzel the mistress of her own destiny.

Golden-haired princess Rapunzel is kept trapped in her lofty tower by a wicked witch, who lops off locks of her beautiful hair and sells them for her own profit. Can Rapunzel ever figure out a way to escape?

From the creator of Little Red, a New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book, Bethan Woollvin's unique and striking art, printed with stunning pantone inks, and her drily comic voice make this the perfect gift for fairy tale fans of all ages.

Bethan Woollvin won The Macmillan Prize for Illustration in 2014 for her classy, bold interpretation of Little Red Riding Hood, Little Red. It was a startlingly confident debut which caught the imagination of everyone who saw it and went on to be shortlisted for the Little Rebels Prize, named as one of the Best Picture Books of 2016 by the New York Times and won the AOI World of Illustration Award 2017. The eldest in a family of ten children, Bethan understands well what appeals to a variety of age groups, and all her work exudes a natural dry wit and charm. She graduated from Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge with a First Class Degree in Illustration in 2015 and now lives in Brighton.
