In the beginning of the book, Queen Leah and King Stefan rule the land. Unfortunately, they have a crave for greed and all things fancy. With their forces, they stripped the land of its natural beauty. So when their daughter Aurora was born, the parents didn’t love her that much, three evil fairies gave the baby girl gifts, but the final cursed her to perish on her 16th birthday. Maleficent, a good fairy, was able to change this so Aurora would live on her 16th birthday. Aurora turns 16, and next thing you know, BOOM! Maleficent is back and has taken Aurora into her custody and thrown the queen and king into the dungeon. Maleficent and Aurora live a subtle and semi-boring life in the castle. That is, until Aurora finds out that this is all a dream, and that her parents are good and the fairies blessed her with good gifts. But the most shocking thing Aurora finds out is that Maleficent is bad and has been using the townsfolk to survive and keep power. Fleeing the castle, Aurora meets Prince Philip and the two of them wander outside of the castle searching for a way out of the horrid dream. Dodging Maleficent’s evil demons and traps, the two of them work hard to wake Aurora up. During the journey, both of the young heroes learn and discover things about themselves on this journey to defeat maleficent and wake Aurora up. Happy reading!
