The Candle Girl

In the castle of Ablamor, King Erylaid and Queen Erylaida had a daughter, a little princess. They named her Evisol, which means Sea Wave. The parents were incredibly happy, but their happiness was short-lived. The evil sorcerer Green Hunchback hired... an assassin, who treacherously plunged a knife straight into the heart of the king and kidnapped the little princess. The grief-stricken queen was turned into cold marble by the Green Hunchback… 

In this fairy tale, told by the famous writer Sofia Prokofieva, the princess must undertake a difficult journey to save not only her mother but also other people and even animals she meets along the way. The little heroine will literally glow with kindness, for which she will receive the name The Candle Girl.

The full sense of immersion in the fairy tale is created by the illustrations of Vladimir Nenov, made specifically for this edition. They are bright, detailed, and also radiate kindness.
