Prince & Knight

The handsome prince and his parents set off on a journey to find him the perfect bride, but none of the women he meets is his ideal mate. When a dragon attacks their kingdom, the prince rushes back to fight it and discovers a brave knight with the same idea, so they work together to defeat the dragon, save each other’s lives, fall in love, marry with his parents’ blessing, and live happily ever after. This timely picture book, in rhyming verse with bright illustrations, can be used for read-aloud or an addition to class or school libraries, to spark discussion and lessons about family diversity, sexual orientation, and same-sex relationships in an engaging and age-appropriate way.
