Description
Publisher's Description of Rump: (Fairly) True Tale of Rumpelstiltskin
In a magic kingdom where your name is your destiny, 12-year-old Rump is the butt of everyone’s joke. But when he finds an old spinning wheel, his luck seems to change. Rump discovers he has a gift for spinning straw into gold. His best friend, Red Riding Hood, warns him that magic is dangerous, and she’s right. With each thread he spins, he weaves himself deeper into a curse.
To break the spell, Rump must go on a perilous quest, fighting off pixies, trolls, poison apples, and a wickedly foolish queen. The odds are against him, but with courage and friendship—and a cheeky sense of humor—he just might triumph in the end.

Category Description for Fairly True Tails
This collection of books from New York Times bestseller Liesl Shurtliff take slight twists and modifications on the original tales of several notorious childhood stories. Rump, Jack, Grump, Red, and several others tell the story in a witty and expanded fashion. Also known as Rumpelstiltskin, Jack and the Beanstalk, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Red Riding Hood, Rump, Jack, Grump, and Red are laced with magical, and make-believe events, characters, curses, giants, and the like. Parents should be aware of the content containing these secular traits as well as themes of good and evil. The books are very engaging and humorous. Use these as library builders. ~Judy
