Alinda of the Loch by Julie Brown and Oonagh Jane Pope
What makes a fairy-tale a fairy-tale? Is it the conflict within the story, where we recognize familiar themed characters that must battle against evil? Alternatively, is it in finding out how as the reader, we too, can conquer the darkness found within ourselves? Fairy tales help us understand the choices and abilities we need throughout our own lives. Children of all ages can learn from Alinda. She models how by recognizing her own "gifts and abilities" when weaved with courage and fortitude, helped her to face adversity. She shows us that the battle for family and love (especially when all hope seems to be lost), is an honorable fight. The story of Alinda of the Loch will answer many of these questions through her little wise tale. Her story helps us to recognize the shadow and the sunshine in the life of a girl who has obtained both the status and rewards of being a mythical and modern day "princess."
