Super-Fun Brain Teasers and Marvelous Mazes
Princes and princesses are always finding that the path of true love totally fails to run smoothly. But when the path winds round and round a grandly constructed garden maze, the difficulties create a pretty pass indeed.
The Marvelous Maze is a richly romantic tale, unraveling the story of young Prince Eric, who has been lonely so long that he quite likes the counsel of his chief advisor to take a wife. Yet, how to choose? Clever, cool and arrogant to a fault is our young prince. And so he devises a scheme to select a princess as clever as himself. Hence his order to his head gardener, Burdock, to construct an enchanting maze: one that is richly embellished with garden ornaments, shrubbery and an abundance of flowers. It is also intricate; so intricate that forty-three princesses try their best and forty-three fail. But after the prince has given up all hope, there arrives a plump, plain princess named Gladwin. And the prince begins to learn the secret beauties not only of his own maze but of two hearts as well.
"So hand in hand, the prince and princess made their way slowly through the shadowy paths of the maze towards the lights of the palace. First she guiding him, then he guiding her... Through the garden and ever after."
The Marvelous Maze will touch all hearts with its tenderness. The book is a lovely gift for engagements, weddings and Valentine's Day. The sumptuous depiction of the classic garden maze and appreciation of nature will appeal to every gardener. And children will be tickled by the disastrous adventures of the less clever princesses, while absorbing the lovely message of this book. It is truly an allegory for all ages.
The illustrators also work magic in depicting the Marvelous Maze in all its aspects, by day and by night, and imbue the story with wonderfully entertaining touches, as well as pure romance.
