The Princess and the Goblin is a captivating tale of courage, enchantment, and friendship. Princess Irene is “a sweet little creature…with eyes like two bits of night sky, each with a star dissolved in the blue,” who lives a lonely life in mountainous kingdom, with only her nurse for company. One day, the Princess follows a secret stairway in her castle and discovers the presence of her great-great-grandmother in a high tower. With the help of her great-great-grandmother, a magical thread, and the healing powers of fire-roses, Irene will join her friend Curdie, the son of a miner, to save the kingdom from evil goblins.

I for one can really testify to a book that has made a difference to my whole existence…. It is called The Princess and the Goblin.” ~G.K. Chesterton
