Rumpelstiltskin


Traditional Literature


In this Caldecott winning book, a young woman must turn thread into gold overnight in order to marry a prince.  However, in order to turn it into gold, she seeks the help of Rumpelstiltskin, who demands something from her every night she needs his help.  Although this book may be a little scary or creepy for younger children, Paul O. Zelinsky's version of the original Brothers Grimm tale comes to life as you follow this young woman and small man.
