The Magic Hill

When Princess Daffodil is bestowed with the gift of flowers by her Fairy Godmother, no one in the palace knows what this gift means. Only when the young girl begins to toddle across the grounds, do the King and Queen see that flowers will grow wherever their daughter has stepped. This is both a blessing and a curse for Daffodil, as she is only allowed to play in the flower beds, where no other children can join her. Where can the young princess find a place to run and play like other little girls? With the help of her mother, the Queen, Daffodil is given the little green hill at the far end of the garden for her very own, which comes to be known as the Magic Hill — a place where Princess Daffodil can play, and where, from that day forward, "flowers have grown and boys and girls have laughed and picked them."
