Rump: The True Story of Rumpelstiltskin

On the positive side, this tale was inventive and entertaining. However, as I was reading this out loud to my kids, we all found it very stressful and disheartening for most of the book. Poor Rump is bullied, and you don't much like the girl he is trying to save. We kept hoping it would get better, and at the very end it does, but it was too late to make it enjoyable.
