(2) 4-6 Alexandria, the sharp-tongued heroine of this farcical fairy tale, is a "simple Goose Girl," orphaned and alone. Then an old woman gives her three "gifts": her hair emits gold dust, her tears turn to diamonds, and her face is "as lovely as the dawn." It's no wonder she winds up locked in a tower. Readers can't help but become invested in Alexandria's sometimes comical, sometimes harrowing plight.
