Sobre IBD

The Light Princess presents an unusual twist on the fairy tale genre. The strange curse placed on the baby princess in this tale prevents the child from having any gravity. The princess must be kept from floating away by a rope that moors her to the ground like a human balloon. Somehow she must find a way to fall in love to break the spell. A wonderful spin on the Sleeping Beauty myth, The Light Princess can be enjoyed by adults and children thanks to the masterful story telling of George MacDonald (The Princess and the Goblin).
