What
does every beautiful princess want? To fall in love with a handsome prince,
of course! Princess Maya has found her prince, but she has a problem. The
prince is blind and unable to appreciate her beauty. She fears that talking
to him could ruin her chances for love, because he voice does not reflect
her appearance.
In a time of despair, Princess Maya meets a plain brown Jay bird who will show her what acts of kindness and generosity can do. With the Jay's help Princess Maya will go through changes, but will they bring her the Prince's love? (Jennifer Garcia, jen12ay3@yahoo.com, college student) |
