SLEEPING BEAUTY FEBRUARY 20-24"Sleeping Beauty" is told in a Table Top Pop Up Book as a Personal Story, as if my great grandmother was the Nonni for the princess Victoria, named after Queen Victoria. When Victoria pricks her finger on a spinning wheel needle she finds in Nonni’s bedroom, Nonni is banished from the castle and ends up going to America. At the end of the story when Victoria is awakened after 100 years, she goes outside the palace and finds herself in a modern city. She says she wants to go back, but Freddy Prince, her modern prince charming, tells her "You can't go back, this is the 21st Century, you can't go back". The story raises questions about how the world changes and how families adapt.
