Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Very Good jacket. Book. Signed by Author(s) First edition, first printing, hardcover. 216 pages. Near fine with head/tail of spine lightly bumped and erasure at top edge of half title page, in a very good, price-clipped dust jacket with edgewear, including 1/2" tear to top edge of rear panel and two 1/8" tears to bottom edge of rear panel. Mylar cover on jacket. SIGNED by author on title page: "Best wishes, Robin Mckinley". A collection of four children's stories: "The Stolen Princess, " "The Princess and the Frog, " "The Hunting of the Hind, " and"The Twelve Dancing Princesses".
This collection contains two original stories (The Stolen Princess; The Princess and the Hind) and two retellings of familiar tales (The Princess and the Frog; The 12 Dancing Princesses). McKinley has a knack for clear, deft prose that flows like water without being slick in the modern sense; her stories are woven, not written. This book is highly enjoyable for all the right reasons: characters that live on after the story ends, and a masterful blending of pathos and humor. The girls in these stories are sympathetic as they deal with events outside their control, the ideal of friendship, developing self-esteem and self-awareness, how to deal with obligations, and the expectations of others.
