BR2-13 Sleeping Beauty

"It's amazing," (p.36)


 I chose this book! This book is "Sleeping Beauty". I watched this movie (Disney). This princess is very cute, so I wanted to become a princess...This book is divided into six chapters.
Many years ago, a king and queen lived in a magical castle. They had everything they could want except...a baby. Year after year, the queen stitched and sewed tiny clothes. And the king made toys in his palace workshop. But still there was no baby. However, she was soon blessed with her baby. She was named Rose.The king was so pleased he planned a feast to celebrate. He asked seven fairies to be Rose's fairy godmothers. The king sent the invitations by bluebird post―and everyone agreed to come. Servants scrubbed and cleaned until the castle gleamed. There had never been a like it.
 As Jasmine hovered over the cradle, a blast of icy air swept through the Great Hall. Suddenly, the mean fairy Nightshade appeared in a whirlwind of foul green smoke. Nightshade used the magic that Rose died on her sixteenth birthday. She cackled gleefully and disappeared with a deafening bang. But, Jasmine trys to change this magic. That night, the flames from a massive bonfire could be seen for miles. They licked the dark sky like serpent's tongues.
The years passed and Rose grew into a delightful girl. Time went happily by and Rose's sixteenth birthday drew near. One day, a brave prince named Florien rode by. He had dreamed of Sleeping Beauty and was determined to find her. Florien's heart fluttered like a birds when he saw her. She was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. Taking her hand, He kissed her soft lips. Her eyes flickered open and Rose found herself face to face with the prince of her dreams! Rose and Florien were married the very next day...!
