Princess Sonora and the Long Sleep

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Mark Elliot. This lightweight story manages to embroider very entertainingly on the Sleeping Beauty tale by adding an extra fairy gift (Princess Sonora is so knowledgeable no one can stand to listen to her) and a prince who always wants to know why--specifically, why the sheep in his father's kingdom are going bald. The two are perfect for each other.
