| The Little Prince |
Welcome to the world HRH Prince of Cambridge! While we all wait to see what your royal name will be - James and George seem to lead the guesses - I thought I'd take a look at some 'princely' books for your first bookshelf:
The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The Prince and the Pauper by Mark Twain
The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli (probably not a happy choice)
The Prince and Betty by P.G. Wodehouse
The Happy Prince by Oscar Wilde
There are many princes in literature - Prince Charming comes to mind, as does The Beast in Beauty and, along with that royal fellow with the magic kiss in Sleeping Beauty.
I am sure we can all put our non-princely heads together and come up with more titles about fictional princes for the wee one's reading list. Any suggestions?
