BR 1-13: Rapunzel

"Two of her tears fell into Prince Hans' eyes, and he gasped." (p. 45)


This is the first time to read this story. It is very interesting. I thought all princes in fairy tales are kind, but Prince Hans made fun of Rapunzel's name. However, he loved her, and he sought her for months when she was cast into the desert by the witch. Rapunzel was so pitiful because she was snatched by the witch from her parents, she treated like a slave, and she was confined to a tower. She was lucky that a young and handsome prince, Prince Hans rode through the forest. I felt happy when I finished reading this book. The names of children who were born between Rapunzel and Prince Hans were very unique! Their names are Pumpkin, Lettuce, and Sprout because Rapunzel was a vegetable's name.
