Deep in the Forest of Fear, an angry sorceress, Meevillain, casts an ominous Cloud of Chaos across the Kingdom of Kindness. Unhappiness and mistrust spread among the people of the
kingdom. Walls spring up around each village, and misunderstandings keep the villagers from remembering life before the shadowing cloud. Young Princess Shayna nearly dies from Meevillain’s
Sinister Sleeping Spell.
Sigmund, the Royal Wizard, saves the princess, but she must take a Silver Apricot Potion every day stay to alive. On her 13th birthday, Princess Shayna embarks on a perilous Vision Quest to
unite the Kingdom of Kindness.
For the first time in her life, she is without her parents’ reassuring guidance. Princess Shayna encounters treachery and deceit, as well as new friendships and kindness. She learns about the
villagers’ Praiseworthy Gifts and helps them appreciate and respect each other again as she shares her Invisible Visible Gift of self-esteem. But before the Kingdom of Kindness can be whole
again, she must face her deepest fear!
