Summary: I want my own pavillion!
Comment: This is a unique collection of stories within a story from a different culture--an Islamic one. The Shah Bahram is wealthy but not happy. He is fascinated with the portraits of seven princesses whom he invites to come live in his kingdom in their own pavillions (beautifully portrayed in the illustrations). Each princess proceeds to tell the shah a story in which seven virtues--truth, patience, perseverance, forgiveness, humility, wisdom, and love--are expounded upon. The shah learns and so do we. There have been an abundance of princess stories and collections in recent years, but this one is unique. I highly recommend it.
