The Light Princess, Chapter 01 - What! No Children?

What this episode covers

Welcome to the first episode of The Light Princess! The Light Princess was written by George MacDonald, most famous for his series The Princess and the Goblin. This extremely funny fairy tale was part of a collection of fairy tales, and has inspired many artists, from Arthur Hughes to Maurice Sendak. It has always been my favorite of MacDonald's stories, and I think you'll agree. Tonight we're reading the first chapter, in which a king becomes very frustrated with his queen. If you'd like to buy a copy from an independent bookseller, you can find it here.
