PERFORMANCE EDITION
by Querida L Funck
When a jealous witch places a curse on the royal family, a newborn princess is robbed of her gravity. She grows up drifting through life-unable to sink, unable to cry, and unable to feel the weight of her own heart.
George MacDonald's classic fairy tale has charmed readers for over a century with its playful wit, magical imagery, and timeless lessons. In this Performance Edition, the story has been carefully prepared for reading aloud, classroom use, and shared performance. Line breaks, pacing cues, and clear formatting make it easy for students, educators, and families to bring the story to life.
Perfect for language arts and literature studies, The Light Princess encourages exploration of themes such as love, resilience, sacrifice, and the grounding power of compassion. Whether used in a classroom, a library program, or a family reading circle, this edition invites readers to discover that the deepest magic lies not in floating above life's burdens, but in finding someone worth holding onto.
An independent publisher of print and audiobook editions — blending artistry, performance, and timeless storytelling.
At Lemery House Press, we publish stories that stay with you — the kind that echo long after the last page or final line. Whether it’s a children’s book that sparks imagination, a memoir that preserves lived experience, or a theatrical work that finds new life on stage or in voice, our mission is rooted in honoring story as legacy. Everything we do is connected by a belief in the power of storytelling to preserve memory, deepen empathy, and give voice to what matters. We don’t aim to publish everything. We aim to publish what endures.
