Sinopse
Características

Once on a Time (1917) is a fairy tale by A.A. Milne. Known more for his series of Winnie-the-Pooh stories and poems for children, Milne also wrote novels, fairy tales, and plays, including this entirely original work of fiction inspired by the authors experience in the Great War. Addressing themes of power, conflict, and moral ambiguity, Once on a Time updates the classic fairy tale format for the twentieth century, and remains a wonderful work of fiction for children and adults alike. While testing out a pair of magical boots, King Merriwig of Euralia, a jolly and decent ruler, accidentally instigates war with a neighboring kingdom. While he is off fighting with the cruel and egotistical King of Barodia, Merriwigs daughter, Princess Hyacinth, is left in charge of Euralia. Despite her youth, she possesses both wisdom and a desire to do right by her people. But the Countess Belvane, the kings mistress, has desires of her own. Jealous of Hyacinth, she hatches a plan to take control of the kingdom, causing mischief for the Princess at every turn. With the help of Prince Udo of Araby--who suffers from a strange enchantment--and his companion Coronel, Princess Hyacinth does her best to take care of Euralia until her father is able to return. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of A.A. Milnes Once on a Time is a classic work of British literature reimagined for modern readers.
