The Prince Child

32 pp. | Front | October, 2004 | Trade ISBN 1-932425-15-2 $16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Martijn van der Linden. All the animals bring gifts to a new frog prince, and in an allusion to the well-known tale, it seems as if he wants a kiss, but no one has planned to give him one. The text is often pretentious, but the haunting images, depicting animals wearing hats and jewelry of varied natural materials, are intriguing and accomplished.
