The New York Times bestselling and Newbery Award-winning author tells a "brilliant tale of a sumptuous world" (New York Times Book Review)

But the curse was cast: Rosie was fated to prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and fall into a poisoned sleep--a slumber from which no one would be able to rouse her.
