Always love a story that makes you read beyond the story on the page to a deeper meaning. Though a lot of the content was a little outside my zone, I enjoyed the story. Built well from the beginning. Makes you think after you finish its pages.

A Wonderful Story about the Story We All Have to Tell
What a wonderful idea for a children's book. A story about how everyone has a unique and special story to tell. I love how this book travels around the world showing pictures of different places. I think it is always great when books expand children's minds to the world around them. I think teaching children to share then story and to want to learn about the story of others is a great way to explore the world and all it has to offer.

"I was talking about this the other day. We were talking about best romantic comedies, and what falls into that category. The love story that develops between Andie MacDowell and Bill Murray is incredible. How they really do fall in love makes it a rom-com at its heart. Even though it’s this really high concept movie, it’s such a beautiful little love story at the same time. So good."

This was an interesting classic Romantic story. The Romance of Tristan and Iseult is incredibly sad but also telling of how the ideas of courtly love were perceived in that time period.

I really enjoyed getting a glimpse into the stories of that period and how people acted about the different ways to love people. There is the adulterous courtly love, the romantic marital love, and the brotherly and loyal love. Each of these loves are explored in this story, which makes it that much more interesting to read.

I learned in one of my classes that this story was the bedrock to a lot of the stories we know and love today. Romeo and Juliet can even trace its lineage to this story. Shakespeare and a lot of the other writers during his era drew a lot of inspiration from this story, so it was very cool to be able to see where they all came from.

I would recommend reading this if you are interested in reading Romantic/Medieval stories. It is one that is obviously well known.

So deliciously troptastic, with a side of HS drama and unrequited love. Although we do get a love triangle and a familiar plot, the illustrations are fantastic and the story, overall, was highly enjoyable.

Heart wrenching
Beautifully written, part fictional story retelling the atrocities faced whilst held in a concentration camp, and how in the face of horror, one man found love. That strength is what shines throughout the story.
