Summary "Era uma vez..." by Júlia Lopes de Almeida is a fairy tale written in the early 20th century. The book is a fictional story that explores themes of selfishness, empathy, and the understanding of true happiness. It follows the life of a spoiled princess who initially lacks compassion but eventually learns valuable life lessons. The story centers around Princess Edeltrudes, who, cherished excessively and granted every wish by her father, grows up to be selfish and cruel. Her path changes when she encounters three blind men, from whom she demands impossible tasks—traveling to the ocean's depths, journeying through space, and exploring a forest—under the threat of execution. Throughout their recounting of their journeys, the blind men teach the princess profound truths about life, love, and the importance of empathy. As she listens, Edeltrudes begins to understand the emptiness of her past behavior. Ultimately, she recognizes that true happiness comes not from strict control over others but from kindness and imagination, leading to a transformative resolution where she embraces compassion for all.
