"I read these books out of order and didn’t realize it. This book was about the princess, she is sent to her home to become educated in the ways of a princess. There’s adventure and new characters and I’m this book is where Taran realizes her loves the princess. These books have such a good overall message, I would read these books with children. Every story has adventure and the characters are all well written. There is always a great lesson. "

"A giant kitty enchanted by music is what makes this my favorite book by Lloyd Alexander, the master kitty-loving author of fantasy. "
