(3) K-3 Illustrated by Louisa Bauer. Princess Raina's suitors must attempt to scale a glass mountain, but when Raina accompanies her favorite on his climb, she falls down into the realm of Old Rinkrank, where she remains imprisoned for a long time. After escaping, Raina shows a special sympathy for caged creatures. Delicately colored illustrations complete this adaptation of a Grimm Brothers' tale, for which Wolkstein provides a new ending.
