Ep. 96: The Princess Test by Gail Carson Levine
Manage episode 343755268 series 2987098
In our second week discussing The Princess and the Pea by Hans Christian Andersen, Drew and Cassie are taking a look at The Princess Test by Gail Carson Levine, the third in her middle grade series called The Princess Tales. This quick little book centers on Lorelei, a blacksmith's daughter who is born with extreme sensitivity, who falls in love with Prince Nicholas, whose parents want to abdicate their thrones. Nicholas's parents insist Nicholas must marry a true princess and thus put 79 princesses - and Lorelei - through a series of ridiculous tests to determine who is worthy of their son. We discuss the other books in the series, the series's writing style, a modern way to interpret Lorelei's sensitivity, Gilmore Girls, the lorelei of German folklore, the terrible princess tests, the Crocodile Princess, and more! Plus we make a very special announcement at the end that you won't want to miss!
