Description: Enchanted by the beauty of the pampered Princess Rose, Prince Sterling wishes to marry her. The princess agrees on one condition: the prince must find her the 'perfect' hairpin. When the picky princess reacts unappreciatively to the prince's efforts to please her, Prince Sterling realizes that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The Rose and the Lily is a delightful fairy tale that illustrated the proverb: "Beauty is only skin deep."
