Enraged at not being invited to the princess's christening, a wicked fairy casts a spell that dooms the princess to sleep for one hundred years.
When the queen gives birth to a daughter, called Beauty, the king hosts a party, inviting everyone in the kingdom—everyone except one lone fairy, that is. Being the only fairy of thirteen not invited, the evil fairy concocts a plan to punish the kingdom that overlooked her. She places a spell upon Beauty, cursing her to die at the tender age of fifteen by piercing her finger with a spindle. Attempting to save the princess, a frightened good fairy combats the bad fairy's curse by allowing Beauty to fall into a one-hundred year sleep, permitting only a prince to revive the princess. After a path of destruction overtakes the castle, young princes take action, battling the evil which has engulfed the castle. As the traditional fairy tale teaches us, the princess is awakened by the single kiss of a special prince. Childlike illustrations allow the reader to remain in child's world as the story unfolds. 2005, Picture Window Books, Ages 4 to 8.

Sleeping Beauty: A Retelling of the Grimms' Fairy Tale
This story is a spin on the traditional folk tale of Paul Bunyan. In this book, Paul meets Lucette and must complete three tests to prove his love for her.
Paul Bunyan's Sweetheart is a Folktale with a quest motif. Paul must go on a quest, completing three tasks to prove his love for Lucette.
I would use this book to teach about the mentor trait of ideas. Throughout the text, Lucette asks Paul to complete three tests. We find out that what she really wants Paul to do is to plant trees to replace the ones he has chopped down. The idea of the story is to take care of the forest and lakes, and all her tasks that she gives to Paul support that idea. For writing, I would use this text to show students how to think of a big idea, and then narrow the topic by providing smaller pieces that support the big idea.
This is a fun and imaginative story that could also be integrated with science, when learning about how trees affect the environment. The book level is 4.6. I could not find the exact guided reading level, but I would estimate that it is an N or O.
