SuitabookThe write story

- Reading
- Read together and pause to compare what Rapunzel knows about herself with what the biography says; see whether the contrast prompts discussion.
- Themes
- Accuracy and authorship: An author offers to write Rapunzel’s authorised biography, but Eugene’s exaggerated account leaves it full of lies. The plot makes inaccurate storytelling central, but does not establish how the book ultimately judges the characters’ choices.
- Worth knowing
- The central problem involves falsehoods in a biography and a character trying to put things right; how serious or upsetting this feels is unclear.
