Bookroo's summary
Queen Gwendolyn, tired of royal monotony, disguises herself as a peasant to explore the world beyond her castle. As she delves into new hobbies, she discovers the art of giving and the path to her true happiness. Will her secret escapades lead to fulfillment or unforeseen challenges?
From the publisher
Queen Gwendolyn is terribly bored. She wants to create gifts for others, not watch others create gifts for her! Disguised as a peasant, she ventures outside the castle to explore her hobbies and, in doing so, learns how to create her true happiness.
