About This Book
Reach for this book when you want to talk to your child about the difference between outward status and inward merit. It is an ideal choice for children who might be struggling with arrogance or for those who need to see that true power comes from kindness, intelligence, and hard work rather than just being the boss. In this sophisticated fairy tale, a selfish prince is tasked with finding a wife who is his equal. While he looks for superficial beauty and wealth, he eventually meets Rosamund, a clever goat herder who challenges him to grow into the leader his kingdom deserves. It is a gentle but firm exploration of humility and mutual respect, perfect for elementary-aged readers who are beginning to navigate complex social hierarchies and friendships.
