Another book review

The Princess and the Hound The Princess and the Hound by Mette Ivie Harrison


My review


rating: 3 of 5 stars
This book is an interesting take on the typical fairy tale. Centered not around "the princess and the hound" but around young Prince George. I found the relationships in the book believable and interesting. The introduction of the concept of 'animal magic' is unique. The language is quite beautiful. It was a bit slow in parts but all in all a fun fantasy read. An excellent choice for anyone who likes books by Gail Carson Levine or Shannon Hale.
