The Lion Princess - Journey to an Awakening
From Deborah K. Frontiera, award-winning author: "A young princess, bored with the palace, sets out on a journey to experience the lives of her people. Her over-protective father thinks she will be safe, but only her own resourcefulness and inner faith can lead her into the wisdom she will one day need to rule her people.
"The Lion Princess, a different sort of ‘fairy tale,’ is a great read for young people. The story and characters provide much for young people to think about and apply to their own lives." - Deborah K. Frontiera, award-winning children’s author, speaker, and teacher
More praise: "This delightful story mixes mystery with a folk-tale style when a young princess uses a unique disguise to escape the boredom of the palace. Through an unforeseen, dangerous circumstance both the princess and her father grow in wisdom and faith in God." - Laura Stephens, teacher of 32 years, a past music director, and entrepreneur of a child development center
From the author: "The Lion Princess encourages young people everywhere to never give up, to go to greater heights by courage, faith, and a strong desire to find out who they are and what their purpose in life really is.
"The novel is unique in that it is not an animal story, per se, but an adventure where a girl dons a very realistic lion suit, joins a circus, and finds out what a struggle it is to be an animal.
"Alice finds out more about herself than she ever dreamed possible, and experiences the trials of the people she will one day rule while she endures the sufferings of animals. I’m very happy that my eleventh book has been released through Lighthouse Publishing."
