Rose is one of twelve princesses forced to dance through the
night in an underground palace. The key to breaking the spell lies in magic
knitting needles, and invisibility cloak, and of course-true love.
This story is pretty straightforward. It’s the retelling of
the 12 dancing princesses, curses, love, evil monsters, etc. While not being
something utterly fantastic and new, this was fun to read. The protagonist,
Galen, was easy to like with his knitting and general kindnesses. Rose, the
eldest princess is fairly typical for a princess, but is greatly more in depth
as a character than any of her sisters, who tend to blend into the background
with all their flower names. This is a sweet little love story/adventure. It’s
fun for entertainment.
I give it a 3 out of 5-it’s average.
