Chris,

I've read this one too.  I love Jane Yoland, she is really good, and
Briar Rose is one of my favorites.  It is for young adults, but it is
beautifully written and worth the read.

Bridgit,

For those who enjoy modern retelling of fairy tales, I highly recommend 
'Briar Rose' by JaneYolen (and I might have mispelled her last name).
It'sa 
retelling of Sleeping Beauty, set in World War II, and I think it's very

well done.
