George MacDonald’s The Light Princess Revisited

Meet Skye! She’s a princess cursed with a weighty problem: She’s light as air! Her ‘condition’ seems to bother everyone else in the kingdom-except her. She floats above them all, laughing as if she hasn’t a care in the world. How will she ever come down to Earth?! Perhaps the lake holds a clue…. The Light Princess is a classic children’s story, originally written by George MacDonald in 1864. It features a surprisingly independent and spirited princess, considering the times in which it was written. In George MacDonald’s The Light Princess Revisited, the original story is modified by children’s author Morgan Young to suit modern sensibilities.
