Description:

Part of the giggle-filled Fairytales Gone Wrong series, this cheeky retelling spins the classic tale into a gentle lesson about why we all need our sleep. Princess Aurora simply refuses to go to bed — she'd far rather stay up late playing — but skipping all that rest leaves her clumsy, cranky and impossibly grumpy. Then a magic spell sends her into a snooze that lasts a whole hundred years! When she finally wakes, Aurora is a transformed princess: cheerful, refreshed and no longer the stroppy, yawning girl she used to be. With Neil Price's bright, comical illustrations and Smallman's playful humour, it's a reassuring read for little ones who resist bedtime, helping turn the nightly battle into something far easier — and perhaps making sleep feel like the magic it really is.
