The story has all the elements of the best in fairy tales--a faraway land, a generous king, and a beautiful princess. . . .The story is succinct, yet moving. The king and princess are rendered in large, warm, medieval-style illustrations that well suit its fairy-tale quality. Boys and girls alike will be drawn into this charming tale, and no one will miss the point on the last page. My only criticism is that this book's cover isn't adorned with gold and precious stones, because this tale is truly a treasure.

Customer Reviews

Good Christian Girls
I like this book because it is a book with good morals put into a fun book that young girls like. I would recommend it.

Adorable book!!
This book is a jewel and I almost missed out on it! I saw it at a book sale and wasn't going to buy it because I was already buying many other books. However, I did open up the cover and discover it was dedicated to the author's daughter who shares my name, so then of course I had to get it! I am very glad I did. Girls of ALL AGES love it (I'm 17) and even some boys. Don't miss out on this treasure!!!

Fantastic, and beautiful artwork
I bought this book sight-unseen and am thrilled! The artwork is so- princess-like! The story is well written and the message to our daughters (and sons) is lovely. It is good for Protestant and Catholic Christians. It doesn't talk about Jesus specifically, but His message is clearly there. Indeed, it may be fine for non-Christians also, who seek to instill in their children a heart of love and service.

I had this book sent to a friend with 2 daughters because I liked it so much.

I'd recommend it for, oh, probably young boys and girls aged 2-9 or so, although the older ones will enjoy reading through it at least once.
