This book is filled with beautiful, affecting stories. The Happy Prince never fails to make me cry, no matter how often I re-read it.

Rather made me feel very special to get this - my daughter will have the benefit of it one day and I can hardly wait to read it to her (I know her mother had it read to her by her father and it held a special place in her heart, as in mine) So I am sure it will have it's tearful moments for me too - just have to wait until she is old enough to read the "big books" too.... (she only just started school this year) so anyway - all to look forward to and this book will be hers eventually, could be a while for the next JE, but who knows - maybe this will be her intro to BookCrossing!

Makes me wonder what the record might be for "trans-generational" bookcrossing! At least three I feel sure.... btu what may be in the future, who knows....
