Interpretation In Pursuance Of Books Rump: The True Story of Rumpelstiltskin ((Fairly) True Tales Series)

In a magic kingdom where your name is your destiny, 12-year-old Rump is the butt of everyone's joke. But when he finds an old spinning wheel, his luck seems to change. Rump discovers he has a gift for spinning straw into gold. His best friend, Red Riding Hood, warns him that magic is dangerous, and she’s right. With each thread he spins, he weaves himself deeper into a curse.

To break the spell, Rump must go on a perilous quest, fighting off pixies, trolls, poison apples, and a wickedly foolish queen. The odds are against him, but with courage and friendship—and a cheeky sense of humor—he just might triumph in the end.

Write-Up Appertaining To Books Rump: The True Story of Rumpelstiltskin ((Fairly) True Tales Series)

An inadequate attempt to tell the backstory of Rumplestiltskin. Shurtliff seems to want to reveal the power of names and naming and to explore the ideas of free will vs. destiny, but the book never gets beyond annoying superficialities. Why does the miller's daughter stick her tongue out and roll it around her mouth all the time? Once we've learned that trolls eat mud and worms, do we need to read about it repeatedly? And how tedious is it to hear about the recalcitrant donkey over and over? The

Loved it!!!Full review to come...

I thought the pixies were a nice touch, though we all know that his name is Rumpelstiltskin.

We grew up knowing that Rumpelstiltskin as a greedy monster but in this novel, readers could see a different perspective on who really he is. In the classic tale, Rump was the antagonist, therefore, it's a 180° turn in this book because the king, queen, and Oswald were all portrayed as despicable or mean. I really enjoyed reading this from beginning till the end because of how good the life story of Rump was written. I didn't expect that this was a page-turner; at first, I thought that there's

"Mom let me name you after my Barbie doll," my older sister declared when we were little kids. Dippy me believed her well into adulthood before learning that I was named after a friend of my mom's. There is power in names and thinking I had been named after something as frivolous as a doll bothered me growing up. I remember thinking mom and dad had too many kids if they were letting siblings name them after toys. I imagined naming my brothers, "Hasbro" or "Matchbox" or "G.I. Joe." At least I

This is an adorable take on the tale of Rumpelstiltskin and I must say, in a time where fairytale retellings are common, I believe this is my favorite version of the tale yet! Rump is a very easy-to-relate-to character for children (and the inner child in the rest of us!) who makes mistakes and then tries to make things right. Fun and humorous, I think this is one that will keep the kids reading - it certainly kept my attention ;)

I just read this out loud to my kids (6 and 9) and they loved it. I am always on the lookout for books that will appeal to both of them, regardless of gender or their 2.5 year age difference.
