Song for a Princess

A humble little wren makes the lonely princess happy again when he sings a song full of all the wonderful words he's been collecting in his nest. When the birds in the palace garden realize the princess is sad, they decide to offer their best to make her smile again. The peacock tries first, proudly displaying his beautiful plumes, but the princess barely lifts her head to look. Then the magpie brings silver and gold, but she only asks him whose jewels he stole. A banquet from the kingfisher, the jackdaws' aerial show -- nothing helps. Then the wren perches on her balcony and sings a soothing story full of all the happy words he's been collecting. "Please never leave, little wren," the princess says, "and I shall never be lonely."

Who can get the princess to stop sawing logs in this fabulously funny and witty take on a well-known fairy tale?One day the King and Queen are woken up in the middle of the night by the most terrifying noise. They search the palace from top to bottom before they discover the source of the deafening din—their daughter's snores! The Princess simply will not be woken, and, before long, everything has decended into chaos with the inhabitants of the palace being driven swiftly mad by the dreadful noise. The only solution, as with all good fairy tales, is a prince of some sort! Princes from every corner of the world are lining up to kiss the princess—on the promise of her hand in marriage and a bag of gold if they can stop the snoring. Who will manage to save the kingdom from the super snores—Chief Brown Bear, Prince Powderpuff of Paris, or Charming Prince Charlie? What if none of their kisses do the trick? With excellent quirky illustrations filled with humor and warmth and a spectacular gatefold novelty, parents and children will love this tale.
