The Girl with the Golden Eyes

Résumé du livre

Think the good and noble path is for the boring and meek? Think again. Meet Princess Caecilia, who, after being framed for the murder of her father, is blinded and left to die in the forest, but there receives help from unexpected quarters. Leap into a fantasy world complete with a wicked step-mother, giant wolves, a Knight in shining armor, shadows and ghosts, and a girl-eating monster, all encountered on a quest to seek out the mysterious Fairy of the Mountain, who may just offer the solution to all of Princess Caecilia's woes. The Girl with the Golden Eyes, by Margaret Erickson, is a fresh and original story told in the traditional style, brought to vivid life by the whimsical illustrations of Virginia Griswold. Filled with just the right amount of sorrow, joy, horror, and wonder, it would make a wonderful gift for any imaginative and adventurous-minded boy or girl.
