“There was once a princess, the fairest one in all the land.” This is how the new book The Princess and the Three Knights, written by Karen Kingsbury starts off.
In this fairytale, the King is looking for a knight worthy enough to marry his beautiful daughter. The knights of the kingdom endure various tests to prove their love for the King’s daughter. In the final test, the real meaning of true love shines through.
Karen Kingsbury is a New York Times best-selling author and has written more than 40 fiction titles. She is also dubbed by Time magazine as the Queen of Christian Fiction and one of her novels is being made into a major motion picture and is due to be released in early 2010.
Having a princess Baby Bird of my own, I enjoy this book. It teaches that not everyone always has your best interest at heart and how important it is to find someone who wants to give you a great happily ever after. It also shows the importance of looking for inner beauty, kindness of heart and strength of character.
The drawings in this book are fit for a princess and the cover has the nice added touch of some glitter. The book is illustrated by Montreal-born Gabrielle Grimard. She began her career as a muralist, painting numerous walls in commercial buildings in the Montreal area.
You can buy this book online at Zondervan or on Amazon.ca.
I also have a copy of this book as a giveaway…

Who doesn't love a princess book?! Hope I win so I can read it to my little girl.

My mum truly believed to read to a child was the ultimate connection. My mum died recently and was never able to read to her 2 year old great grand-daughter. I would love to be able to read it to her (my great neice), on behalf of my mum. Thanks for giving me this possible chance.
I have three princesses who would love a new book
