A review by chrisannee
The Princess and Curdie by George MacDonald

3.0

MacDonald's children's princess was so fun and childlike that I decided to pick up the sequel. It didn't quite work because the Princess is somewhat like Peter Pan, in that it's impossible to imagine her grown up. And, even if you manage to accept that, the metaphorical ending is somewhat shattering---metaphorically. But read MacDonald's other stuff for kids to your kids... especially when they're young. Especially if you love Lewis and want them to love Narnia.
