The Dog Prince

(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Lauren Mills & Dennis Nolan. In this lengthy literary fairy tale, a bored and insensitive prince learns how to serve and sacrifice for others after he is turned into a dog by a fairy. Lightly colored in pastel and earth tones, the romantic watercolors lend the book a timeless feel. Despite a few awkward sentences and the unclear symbolism of a mysterious chimera, the story presents an interesting adventure.
