Brandon Mull, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Fablehaven.Ĭustomers who bought this item also bought. People Lighthearted and inventive, Rump amusingly expands a classic tale. A fresh riff on the Grimm Brothers' Rumpelstiltskin, told with wit from the impish point of view of the troublemaker himself. And don't miss Liesl Shurtliff's other fairy tale retellings: Jack: The True Story of Jack and the Beanstalk and Red: The True Story of Red Riding Hood. A Texas Bluebonnet finalist and winner of the ILA award for middle grade fiction, Rump is perfect for fans of Gail Carson Levine's Ella Enchanted or Adam Gidwitz's A Tale Dark and Grimm. The odds are against him, but with courage and friendship-and a cheeky sense of humor-he just might triumph in the end. To break the spell, Rump must go on a perilous quest, fighting off pixies, trolls, poison apples, and a wickedly foolish queen. With each thread he spins, he weaves himself deeper into a curse. His best friend, Red Riding Hood, warns him that magic is dangerous, and she's right. Rump discovers he has a gift for spinning straw into gold. But when he finds an old spinning wheel, his luck seems to change.
In a magic kingdom where your name is your destiny, 12-year-old Rump is the butt of everyone's joke.
