I do love a good tale of a boar prince. I particularly loved the repeating description, "so large that upon his back one could have built a hut for five people to comfortably live in," and how the narrative wove in upon itself.
I loved this! Every Friday my mother took me to the library with a shopping bag, and I filled it with fairy tale books. I think I know almost every tale, from the Billy Goat Gruff onward and backward. This was a new way to present an old tale, and I'm going to try it.

This is enchanting! Subtle humor and deliciously written. I am going to re-read many times.
