I did not like this book. It is based on a Irish Tale about a princess giving up her life for her daughter. The daughter then does the same. It has a great concept, but I don't think I would read this to my children.The book is very dark. It has a great lesson though, family will do anything for you. But, I do not see it being great in the classroom.

I thought this sory was very sad however it was well written. I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in old fashioned fairytalkes. This story is about tragic lives but it does have ahappy ending. The illustrations work great with the text.

Get one part of « The Youth's Magic Horn » – normally it is edited in three volumes – have a walk through any German forest, sit down under an oak and start reading. If you don’t know German, instead of the books get a CD-player and listen to Christa Ludwig, interpreting Gustav Mahler’s musical version. It is something very sublimely German. You would have to be a monster in order not to enjoy that moment.

The author describes his work as "a novel run wild". He betakes himself to his protagonists for to know, how his story would progress.
