Summary: "The Princess Idleways: A Fairy Story" by Helen Ashe Hays is a fairy tale written in the late 19th century. This enchanting story centers on a young princess named Laura who, despite her privileged upbringing, finds herself lazy and unfulfilled. The tale unfolds as her mother, concerned about her daughter's happiness, seeks the help of a fairy known as Motherkin, leading Laura on a transformative journey in the forest, where she learns valuable lessons about responsibility, kindness, and self-discovery. The narrative follows Laura as she is guided by Motherkin to a modest cottage, where she is tasked with caring for animals and performing household chores, a stark contrast to her former life of luxury and idleness. Through her challenges, Laura meets Kathie, a poor girl with a heavy heart, and forms a bond with her. Their journey together leads to the discovery of compassion and the importance of helping others. As the story develops, Laura's transformation from a spoiled princess to a caring and industrious young girl is beautifully portrayed, demonstrating the joy that comes from selflessness and community. Ultimately, the tale concludes with Laura returning home, enriched with wisdom and a newfound sense of purpose, ready to share her good fortune with those in need.
