(2) 4-6 Christian ran away from home at six and has happily lived in the forest for eleven years. The girl next door happens to be a princess, and the two teens, kept apart by circumstance, correspond by carrier pigeon ("p-mail"). The lighthearted tale maintains the right balance of humor and sentimentality as the characters finally meet and discover their love is real. Forbidden love, secret identities, and a happy ending--what more could you ask?
