Title: Crystal Heart - Frédéric Lenoir - book
Summary :
Once upon a time...
In a distant kingdom, a young prince is the victim of a terrible fate: his heart, encased in a crystal shell, can neither vibrate nor love. Only a burning fire of love can melt the crystal and free his heart.
Although he is old enough to marry, and despite all his efforts, no woman inspires this love in him. Thus, he decides to set off on the roads of the world, in search of the one who will deliver him from the curse. Strewn with many obstacles, his quest leads him to meditate on the meaning of life, but also to discover the terrible secret that weighs on his birth.
As much a storyteller as a philosopher, Frédéric Lenoir explores the human heart: the seat of love, but also of pain and mourning. A universal tale for children, their parents, and their grandparents.
