Description

When a sensitive prince searches far and wide for a bride but finds no princess as tender-hearted as he is, he can hardly bear the disappointment. Then a mysterious stranger comes to the door. Could she be the one the prince has been looking for? How will he know? Xanthe Gresham's lyrical prose brings rich detail and contemporary depth to this beloved Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale.
