What is Melisande about?
When Princess Melisande is cursed by the Bad Fairy Malevola, she is left completely bald. Her mother tries to undo the spell, but the solution brings an even bigger problem: Melisande’s hair begins growing faster and longer than anyone can control. Soon, the princess is tangled in a magical muddle, with her hair causing chaos throughout the kingdom. Only Prince Florizel may be clever enough to break the curse and rescue Melisande from her extraordinary predicament.
