Overview:
Elysia was both an intelligent and beautiful Princess, with shiny golden hair, eyes of sapphire blue, and the softest pinkish skin in the land. Born with a large brown patch on one side of her face, the beautiful Princess grew up feeling and believing she was ugly.
Read about how Princess Elysia discovers her beauty within as she and her young friend, Kyle, pay a visit to a wonderland in the sky with the help their friend, Twilight, a fallen fairy, who had lost her wings and had to win them back. Will Twilight be able to win her wings back and become a fairy once again? What will happen to young Kyle and Princess Elysia when they visit the Wonderland? This is a very good book for the young and the young-at-heart. Don't miss out on it!
I've read THE CRYING PRINCESS, from first to last, from "Once upon a time," to "...lived hapily ever after." Simply holding the book in my hands transports me back to childhood innocense. It took me back to childhood dreams of waking one morning to find out I was really born a princess. I look down from my bedroom loft to see below me-- my royal mother and father. And life changes for me forever, for I am now a princess. Thank you Ms Joyce for sending the royal carriage in the form of your book THE CRYING PRINCESS.
You will be drawn into the story and discover why the Princess Elysia crys crystal droplets and why Twilight the flying fish tells her "... We must be calm."
You will see for yourself the fantasy beings that live in the Princess's world by many illustrations. You will see a tiny purple dragon that lands in the middle of the princess's palm, a white-winged horse, Reddy the dragon and a fussy-girly creature that looks like a cat.
I read the book for my own pleasure. But, oh--to have a child sit on my lap, boy or girl, and read the story out loud. Transport yourself back to childhood, for in THE CRYING PRINCESS you will encounter challenges aplenty, interesting life forms and most of all a royal future to be planned! Thank you Ms Joyce for carring me back to childhood on the back of a red dragon!
