Light Princess Audiobook

" This another book and author from that same English class. I love his writings. "

" Awesome! A short little story about a princess cursed with being "light"--she lacks any gravity, both in manner and in weight. Very good fairy tale. "

" Quick read. A silly little story with a rewarding happy ending. "

" A little long for a read-a-loud in one setting. Love the illustrations by Katie Thamer Treherne. "

" A little too strange for me. The illustrations by Maurice Sendak fit with the mood. "

" This is probably my very favorite fairy tale ever! It could be absolutely wonderful fleshed out and made into more than a short story. "

" So beautiful, so sweet. A precious little fairy tale. "

" A friend read this book to me over the past weekend. The writing is delightfully witty and the lessons are deep. I enjoyed it tremendously. Yes, it is a fairy tale, with witches and such, but the lessons and the humor made me greatly enjoy it. I'll probably read it again sometime. "

" A delightful children's tale with a message under the story. Satisfying and fun. "

" The Hovel audio version of this ethereal fairy tale was a delight. "

" Listen to the little book again. Very enjoyable. "

" MacDonald is fantastic in all senses of the word. "

" What a delightful little story. :) Full of wit and charm and brevity, I quite enjoyed this light-hearted narrative. "

" Has some really really big words so in that sense kids may need to be a little bit older to understand or have a parent willing to explain. But a cute story nonetheless. "

" Perhaps the original twisted fairy tale. "

" My husband gave me this book to read when we first started dating. At first, I didn't get it. It's a good story. "

" There is a little punning here that is fun for people who are just learning about word play. "

" Brief, humorous and quite entertaining. Quite a nice little surprise from a classic I had never heard of before. "

" if you're looking for an unusual fairy tale to read to your children, or even to yourself, this is the book for you. we will definitely read it again. "

" Rather long for a fairytale but very sweet. I loved the "light" puns, how many different things you can put into one word. The princess was a bit arrogant but learned how to be a nice girl at the end of course. What really amused me were the songs the prince (= the audiobook reader) sang. "

" Maybe I was too young when I read this, it didn't make too much sense to me "

" I'm going to get all newspaper critic here and say "delightfully charming." :) "

" While amusing, this is not one of his best stories. It was a very inventive plot but if fell kind of flat in the telling to me. I think I prefer his novels. "

" Fun fairy tale by the forerunner of and inspiration to J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis. George MacDonald is quite imaginative! "

" I love this book! A fairy tale about the light princess who floats away until she learns gravity. "

" Liked the 2nd half. The prince's voice on the audiobook is amazing! "

" I just read it again after a long time. It's a fun, really fast read that is just one of those classics that everyone should read. "

" It's short, so you may as well read the story instead of a review. I will say MacDonald has more of a sense of humor than I gave him credit for. "

" Cute. Very short. Great audiobook. Similar to Gail Carson Levine in story and style. This author uses a lot of 5 dollar words which made the listening all the more fun. Nothing special, just simple princely fun. "

" This was a really enjoyable book. I felt sorry for the prince and the princess frustrated me, but the book was very good. "

" Stacy introduced me to this little gem. Definitely, one of my favorite fairy tales. "

" Cute fairytale, almost parable-like story about the importance of gravity and falling when it comes to love and life. "

" This is a unique, fun fairy tale that can be read in one sitting. It's a little under 2 hours in audio format. "

" This is one that I will purchase when my daughter finds the joy of reading! "
