Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Once on a Time" by A. A. Milne is a fairy tale novel published in 1917. When the King of Barodia's seven-league boots cause chaos over Euralia's castle, war erupts between the two kingdoms. With her father away, Princess Hyacinth must navigate court politics and counter the scheming Countess Belvane. This unconventional fairy tale features a capable princess, a vain prince, and morally complex characters that defy typical storybook stereotypes. Written partly to amuse his wife, Milne crafted a tale that may appeal more to adults than children.
