One lovely summer morning the little Princess Rosemary woke up early, jumped out of bed, put on her crown and popped her head out of the castle window. There she saw, through the branches of the Queen’s best rose-tree, a merry band of Dew Children, sparkling through the castle park as lightly as if blown on the morning wind.
The Princess laughed for joy and the Dew Children heard her. They came running over the grass and called to her to come down and play with them.
Quick as a bird, Princess Rosemary slipped downstairs and out into the fresh, sunny summer morning.
