Welcome to the fifth episode of The Light Princess!
The Light Princess was written by George MacDonald, most famous for his series The Princess and the Goblin. This extremely funny fairy tale was part of a collection of fairy tales, and has inspired many artists, from Arthur Hughes to Maurice Sendak. It has always been my favorite of MacDonald's stories, and I think you'll agree.
Tonight we're reading the fourth chapter, in which the king and queen attempt to come to terms.
