Product DescriptionRun a Quick Search on "Princess Hyacinth" by Florence Parry Heide and Lane Smith to Browse Related Products:Browse more products related to "Princess Hyacinth"Browse more products related to "Florence Parry Heide and Lane Smith"Review"A wonderfully expressive illustration of Hyacinth dragging through the castle halls in her gravity-ensuring extra-heavy shadow on the wall. Smith's elegantly cartoonish brush-and-ink character survives an exhilarating scare involving a kite, a rescue and a newly formed friendship." "The quirky oil and watercolor illustrations seamlessly match Heide's wry, understated text... Heide possesses the ability to tell a moralistic tale without a hint of didacticism and makes this singular tale seem like the story of every girl who meets a boy, shedding the protective rules of her parents in exchange for a life where she is 'never bored again.'" Publisher's noteHaving a daughter who floats, the king and queen use stones and a heavy crown to keep her weighted down to the ground, but when she gets her hands on a balloon one afternoon and then takes off her heavy accessories, the young royal gets the ride of her life! Simultaneous. "A bestselling Caldecott Honor artist and legendary author team up " AnnotationPrincess Hyacinth isn't the usual high-maintenance little lady of storybook lore, but someone who can't have much fun due a floating problem. That's right, if Hyacinth isn't attached to something or weighted down, she'll float away! This means no swimming, or much of anything at all. But when she decides to adventure, things get exciting. With Lane Smith gorgeous illustrations.
