In a magical kingdom where your name is your destiny, a twelve-year-old rump is the butt of everyone's joke. But when he finds an old spinning straw into gold. His best friend, Red Riding Hood, warns him that magic is dangerous, and she's right. With each thread he spins, he weaves himself deeper into a curse. To break the spell, rump must go on a perilous quest, fighting off pixies, trolls, poison apples, and a wickedly foolish queen. The odds are against him, but with courage and friendship- and a cheeky sense of humor- he just might triumph in the end.
