5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Story About A Princess & Unicorn, September 25, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Morgan and Me (Serendipity) (Paperback)

"Morgan and Me" is the story of a young princess who lives in the Land of Later. She's a dreamer, but mostly she's a procrastinator, always putting off her duties until later.

One day she gets lost in the woods and finds a unicorn with his horn stuck in a tree branch. Morgan, the unicorn, asks if she'll help him break free. The princess, however, would rather go play than help Morgan this minute. But she promises to return later.

Once she grows bored of playing, the princess returns and cuts the branch away for Morgan. Together they roam the meadow, Morgan having since forgiven the princess for her belated rescue. However, the princess doesn't watch her step while they are playing and falls into a pond. From the safety of a lily pad, she calls for Morgan to help her. Morgan replies he will--eventually.

The princess realizes her mistake earlier and heartfully apologizes to Morgan. Convinced, Morgan rescues the princess from the pond. And ever since, they've been best friends.

I would recommend this book to young children, but I'm sure most adults will enjoy it just as much. Robin James is the talented illustrator of "Morgan and Me" and many other Stephen Cosgrove books. I highly recommend you read all of Cosgrove's books if you liked this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, July 20, 2005

By	J. Moore (NC, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

30 years ago my mom read this book to me. Recently my 4 year old's procrastination reminded me of the princess in this book who always says "just a little later." I was thrilled that the book was still available and even more pleased that it is every bit as good as I remembered. My daughter enjoys it as much as I did when I was her age.
