The Happy Prince

In the beautifully compose tale The Happy Prince, it tells a falsehood of retire and generosity. The book delves into a fairy tale of a engross and a prince, it poetically talks of the time when the prince was alive and how he was much(prenominal) a joyful person. The people of the kingdom bestowed upon the prince the nickname The Happy Prince. When the prince died the town councillors chose to create a statue honouring him, setting the statue high above the town so the happy prince could watch over everyone.The Prince was coated in gold and rubies, this make him look magnificent and the whole town admired him. The prince became friends with a inter and together they help the poor by giving them the gold and rubies run into the statue. The book enters into a world of perplexity and reliance. The construction of the tale is written in an humourous way, but in doing that it also explores some practiced issues involving poverty and loneliness.Playwright and poet Oscar Wilde st arted writing the childrens book The Happy Prince in 1988, the unusually written book is wildly popular even still 23 years later. Wildes collection of childrens baloney books consists of The Happy Prince, The Nightingale and the Rose, The selfish Giant, The Devoted Friend and The Remarkable Rocket, all with different meanings, all honorable as funny and all just as heart wrenching. I presuppose Wilde not only wrote these books for children but he made real they are comedic and entertaining for adults too.The stories all have deeper meanings and talk about inwrought issues, this I think is makes the books even better. I remember my dad teaching The Happy Prince to me as a child, the story back then was exclusively different to what I remember now. The humorous way Wilde goes into relationship surrounded by the two main characters in the story really made me laugh, I liked the way he talked of how to swallow fell in warmth with the reed and how the other swallows thought it was ridiculous because she has no money, and far to numerous relations. Eventually the swallow tired of the reed as she had no conversation. Wilde uses humorous writing conventions such as metaphorical description of the relationships in the story between the wind and the reed she was always flirting with the wind. I love the style of writing and how witty and crazy Wildes ideas are. I think Wildes childrens book will always be loved, the bizarre stories will continue to make people laugh and proceed to be fantastic bedtime stories.
