• Beautiful Stories!

  Posted October 28, 2008 by Jade, Wyoming USA

  The book contains a few stories. In the first one the Prince does what he knows is right no matter what everyone else thinks. The Infanta is such a brat in the second story and her father live so much in the past that I wonder what he'd do when it comes time for her to marry. The third story seems to teach us that there is nothing more precious, nor costly perhaps, than Love. The ending of the last story is out of but even that doesn't mar that which come before. It's very touching.
