![]() ![]() Project Gutenberg has a free online edition: They did mention the ending was rather sad, but it is a wonderful story filled with Christian symbolism. This is the edition I read to my kids, and it is available on eBay: The Princess and Goblin I read the sequel to this story, The Princess and Curdie to my children. I read The Princess and Goblin book out loud for free to my children by checking the book out at my public library. Later, Curdie follows the magic thread to her refuge at his own house, and restores her to the king. I was especially intrigued when Princess Irene’s great-great-grandmother gives Irene a ring attached to a thread invisible except to herself, which thereafter connects her constantly to home. I love The Princess and Goblin because Curdie sings to face the goblins, and this reminds me that we as Christians need to sing praise and worship songs to face our fears. ![]()
