Books For Keeps May 1998
"The marriage of sparse, but quite challenging text, with a radiant mix of paints, pattern and mosaics makes that of the Bengali Princess with the humble weaver a rich experience. French's superb artwork begins with dazzling endpapers which would be a wonderful stimulus for art lessons...This extraordinarily rich book is one to savour. It will enhance any Primary library." --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Synopsis
Based on a Bengali folktale, this book tells the story of Jamil, a weaver who daydreams of marrying a princess. When he confesses his dream to his cat Sardul, the animal resolves to make his master's wish come true and tricks the royal family into thinking Jamil is the richest man in the world.
