The Light Princess by George MacDonald audiobook.

Genre: fantasy

In a whimsical kingdom where magic and mischief mingle with real consequence, a newborn princess is cursed by a spiteful aunt so that she has no gravity - not only in body, but in spirit. She floats, drifts, and laughs at everything, unable to take life seriously or feel its ordinary weight. Courtiers invent elaborate contraptions to keep her from bobbing into the rafters, physicians offer solemn nonsense, and the king and queen grow desperate for a cure that might make their daughter truly present in the world. Across the mountains, a young prince from a neighboring land encounters the strange, bright girl and becomes entangled in the mystery of her condition. As drought threatens one kingdom and a magical lake becomes the focus of power, peril, and possibility, the princess and prince are drawn toward choices that test courage, compassion, and the meaning of responsibility. By turns playful and poignant, George MacDonald's classic fairy tale explores what it costs to love, what it means to be 'grounded,' and how a heart learns to carry both joy and sorrow.
