"Bee: The Princess of the Dwarfs" by Anatole France is a fantasy story from the turn of the century, starting with sadness as a Countess knows she will die when she finds a white rose. Before she passes, she asks the Duchess of Clarides to protect her son, George, and the Duchess agrees to raise George alongside her own daughter, Bee. The kids grow up together, becoming close like siblings. We see how much they care about each other as they play, setting the scene for trips to magical places with dwarfs and sylphs and foreshadowing tests that will look at who they are, how much love means, and what sacrifices they will make.
