Summary: "The Little Lame Prince and His Travelling Cloak" by Dinah Maria Mulock Craik is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Prince Dolor, who is born with a physical disability that prevents him from walking, leading to a life of seclusion and loneliness. This tale blends elements of fantasy and fairy tale, exploring themes of love, hope, and self-acceptance through the adventures of its young protagonist. At the start of the story, we meet the beautiful infant Prince Dolor, celebrated by the kingdom but burdened by a tragic accident that leads to his lifelong inability to walk. His christening ceremony is overshadowed by the death of his mother, the queen, which sets the tone for his challenging life. After being cared for by various attendants, Dolor grows isolated in his small world, only occasionally visited by a mysterious old woman who serves as his godmother, bestowing upon him a magical travelling cloak. This cloak becomes a symbol of hope, enabling him to explore the world beyond his confines and sparking his longing for connection, companionship, and adventure. Through Dolor’s journey, the narrative emphasizes inner strength despite physical limitations and highlights the importance of love and acceptance. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
