"The Lettuce Girl" is a graphic re-telling of the classic fairy tale Rapunzel.

In this 48 page book we learn about Hazel's birth and how she came to be cared for by the witch, Nell. Now a teenager, Hazel's incarceration has become intolerable, but she is about to meet a new and strange friend.

This is a lovingly hand-bound, self-published comic written and rendered by Sophia Wiedeman.

"There's a certain grimness to this story about the darker side of motherhood that makes one wonder about the ultimate fate of these characters ... The richness of her storytelling and unsettling imagery make this a consistently intriguing read." -Rob Clough, Hi-Low
