In George MacDonald’s classic fantasy fiction, The Princess and the Goblin, Princess Irene discovers her beautiful great-great-grandmother spinning silver thread in the palace tower. But when no one will believe her tales of the secret tower, Irene’s confidence begins to waver. The Princess and the Goblin is a delightful, meaningful tale of love, bravery, and the importance of faith. This abridged edition of the original 1872 story beautifully illustrates how George MacDonald brings Christian truth into children’s literature and is included in the offerings of Christian fiction from JourneyForth Books for its timeless support of Christian truth.
