Just like baby bear's bed, this book is just right.

This is an intriguing retelling of the classic fairy tale.  While it is written in such a way as to be quite close to the original story, there is a bit of a twist in the fact that Rumplestiltskin is actually quite a good guy.  I was captivated by the sweet story and the way Aubrynn was able to see past Rumple's deformities in a way no one else ever had.

Though this is a retelling, it didn't feel like I knew exactly what was coming next.  The story was well written and interesting.  It is appropriate for a wide range of audiences from pre-teen to adults who are young at heart.
