Publisher's Description:
It is the most spectacular spring in history. The princesses—Joy, Grace, Faith,
Charity, and Hope are busy with preparations for the annual Easter celebration
and the castle is alive with activity.
Into the kingdom ride five new friends, young
knights, who are as spirited as the princesses. In the new Princess Parables
title, A Royal Easter Story, a challenge is presented and the boys
and girls decide to race to the neighboring village where the annual Easter
celebration and feast will be held. Along the way, the princesses must weather
a scary storm and rescue another new friend. But in the end the lesson is clear
… trust in the Lord and his love and you can overcome any obstacle.
My Review:
I recommend A Royal Easter Story for older children (4-9 years old) as the wording on each page is a bit long. I like the story of the princesses as they discover what is more important-- helping someone or winning a race. The focus on Easter and Jesus is refreshing, especially the prayer the girls shared for guidance. And I like the reference to the girls being daughters of the King, just as God is Father and we are his daughters. The "Parable Thoughts" at the end were a great tie in to share with children. This would be nice for a family to read together or maybe at a girls' Bible study. I would have enjoyed reading this with my daughters when they were young. The illustrations are bright and cheerful and bound to please any girl. The dust cover even has glitter!
