Publisher's Synopsis
The Happy Prince is a beautiful story by Oscar Wilde that every boy or girl should read, a classic that hooks, attracts and encourages the love of reading. It is a fully illustrated and contextualized book that shows a perspective easy to understand and enjoy. This book provides teaching about the beauty of generosity, kindness, empathy and friendship but at the same time injecting the magic of imagination into young and adults. It tells the story of a prince who lives happily within the walls of his palace and who will only see the real world when he is turned into a precious golden statue on a high pedestal, from which he can see beyond the fragile happiness of his castle. From there, with the help of a swallow, he will divest himself of all wealth to distribute among the most unfortunate and disadvantaged. An imaginary world that leaves no reader indifferent. Boys and adults can be moved by this tender story, an adventure that, despite the passage of time, does not lose validity and charm.
