How's this for a book premise? Tell the real story behind Sleeping Beauty, modifying all the magical elements to include rational explanations of events in the story that were prevalent in the middle ages. That's the idea behind this book. Blackwell does a “beautiful” job, creating atmosphere, explaining the cruelty of Millicent and the mysterious sleep of the castle and the kiss of the prince well. A perfect vacation day read.
