Rapunzel — Jacob Grimm; Wilhelm Grimm

Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair....

She was taken from her parents at birth, the penalty that her father was forced to pay for stealing from a forbidden garden. She was raised by a powerful enchantress and locked away in a lonely tower. The only stairway up or down was her own golden tresses. There she grew up, innocent and beautiful, knowing nothing of the world until a handsome prince heard her sad, sweet song through the tower window....

Many generations have shared the wonder of the Grimms' classic fairy tale. But never before have its beauty and mystery been illuminated so hauntingly as in Kris Waldherr's remarkable picture book of one of the world's most beloved fairy tales.
