Lewis' pictures charmingly show the couple's love for each other as they hold hands, cup each other's faces, and share a kiss. Another welcome celebration of love for the younger set.-- "Booklist"<br><br>With rich colors and cinematic sequences, Lewis' animation-inflected art shines in this fantastical tale. Whereas in the first book knight rescued prince, the reverse happens here-a delightful counterpoint to heteronormative gender roles. . . . Excellent in its positive depiction of queer heroes.-- "Kirkus Reviews"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Daniel Haack</b> is an Emmy Award winner who's also the author of <i>Prince & Knight</i> and <i>Maiden & Princess</i>.
