“In The Great Royal Race, Carl Sommer
masterfully displays timeless virtues in the ageless setting of the choosing
of a husband for the king’s daughter. Through surprises during the great race, the three fine
suitors, Simon, Thomas, and John, unwittingly display their true feelings
for the princess Elizabeth. The
one choosing love rather than money or fame also becomes a wise and great
king. A timeless tale of love and perseverance.
Carl Sommer has interwoven a classical tale of a princess seeking her
true-love and the virtues of hard work and self-worth.
This story will be a welcome addition to books used for character
education.
