About this ebook
"Curdie working at the mines at his father's side was growing up to be like any other miner's son. But the wonderful fairy godmother of Princess Irene needed his help. Therefore she called him to her and taught him to tell by the touch of his hand whether people were fine or base. Then she sent him to Gwyntystorm where the King and the Princess lived. There through his wonderful knowledge and the assistance of the great misshaped animal who guarded him, Curdie saved the life of the King, who was being slowly poisoned. His courage and wisdom also brought about the removal of the mean spirited officers from power, and order to the city of Gwyntystorm which had fallen into evil ways. This tale of the power of simple goodness and unwavering faith to overcome the power of evil, is one of unforgettable charm and beauty" --
