Horn Book

Abby and Jonah's fifth trip through their basement's magic mirror lands them in the story of Rapunzel; the tale goes astray when Abby gives Rapunzel a haircut ("The bangs weren't my best idea"). As usual, the twists are unexpected and entertaining and the humor is pitch-perfect; some just-scary-enough moments, featuring a giant tarantula and a mean sorceress, complete the package.
