Summary

"The Princess Nobody: A Tale of Fairyland" by Andrew Lang is a delightful children's story about a king and queen who desperately want a child and are finally blessed with a princess named Niente, meaning "Nobody." A strange turn of events occurs after the king has a discussion with a magical dwarf, resulting in Niente, the Water Fairy, sending Niente away to protect her. This act sets in motion a grand adventure where multiple princes try to find and save her. Prince Comical valiantly takes the lead in the quest and successfully discovers the princess hidden away in Mushroom Land. Their journey together is challenged by both misfortune and challenges, but their love and determination wins in the end. The narrative shows the rewards of bravery and how important strong emotions can be in a world filled with enchantment.
