Determined to protect his beloved only child, a wealthy merchant named Danina builds a splendid palace for her by the sea. Here she is protected from all danger, surrounded by beauty, and tended by servants who are always pleasant. But one day, the wind - who is "not always kind" - finds Danina, and sings to her of the wide world beyond the palace walls, where the days are sometimes happy, sometimes sad, but always different... An original fairy-tale from Jane Yolen, a prolific children's book editor and author, The Girl Who Loved the Wind is a cautionary tale for those parents who would seek to shelter their children from all of life's blows, as well as a meditation on the ability of adversity to give meaning to life. Ed Young's watercolor and collage illustrations - inspired by Persian miniature painting - give Yolen's narrative an appropriately buoyant quality. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Not your everyday princess story, The Girl Who Loved the Wind tells how the world comes, in it's own way, to everyone. The princess does not wait for someone to free her, but rather discovers that she has always been free, and had the power in herself all along.
A lovely daddy-daughter story with beautiful images. ( )
