Rump. Yes, Rump. That's his name. His mother died before she could finish telling him his name. So, until further notice, he has half a name. Rump lives with his grandmother. When she dies, that's when the trouble starts. Rump finds he can spin straw into gold, like the story says. But in order to get food you need gold. So Rump trades with the greedy unfair miller,keeper of the food. He gets by until the king comes. The miller says that his daughter is spinning the straw to gold and she is taken away to make him rich.So how does Rump find the rest of his name? Well you'll have to read to find out! I loved this book so much and I def. think this book could win a Newbery Award; this was a great book and I hope Liesl Shurtliff writes more books like this!
I hope that you read this book and agree,
Luved it! <3 claire="" comment-3--="">
