Rapunzel's Revenge (Paperback)
Fall 2008 Kids' List
“At last, the real tale of Rapunzel and her braids (used less to escape from towers and more to lasso villains). The illustrations help illuminate the adventures of a sassy maiden who's out to help the downtrodden and punish the powerful.”
— Katie Capaldi, McLean & Eakin Booksellers, Petoskey, MI
This stunning, hilarious, and action-packed graphic novel co-written by New York Times bestselling and Newbery Honor winning author Shannon Hale re-imagines Rapunzel's story . . . in the wild west!
Rapunzel escapes her tower-prison all on her own, only to discover a world beyond what she'd ever known before. Determined to rescue her real mother and to seek revenge on her kidnapper would-be mother, Rapunzel and her very long braids team up with Jack (of Giant killing fame) and together they preform daring deeds and rescues all over the western landscape, eventually winning the justice they so well deserve.
