Sir Malcolm and the Missing Prince: A Tale of Long Ago (Sidney Baldwin)

Sir Malcolm and the Missing Prince

A Tale of Long Ago

“I give orders, not take them. I am the Prince. For I am the King’s son!” But now Prince Hubert, who had always talked much and worked little, finds himself in a change of circumstances! – where he is simply known as Hugh, the peasant boy! Suddenly all his silks and satins are replaced with rough work clothes, which he learns during his time spent at this “foreign school.”

Hugh is a sturdy, likeable boy, who will undoubtedly take a favorite place in the line of lovable Lamplighter characters.

Dozens of beautiful illustrations and artwork throughout this handsomely bound book with gold stamping on the cover.

Character themes in this story: choices, consequences and peer pressure.

About the Lamplighter Rare Collector’s Series 

Lamplighter stories are much more than good and wholesome reading for the family.  The inspiring role models found in Lamplighter books show a child that outward compliance alone will not carry a child through the stresses and disappointments soon to be faced in adolescence and adulthood, nor are they a substitute for faith in Christ.  As we learn of perseverance, courage, loyalty, humility, these are qualities to emulate and pursue, but as children read in stories of others like them trying their best and falling short, they will powerfully learn their need for the gospel.  Though life is often not easy, we can be confident that each disappointment and trial is designed by a loving God for our good.

Lamplighter books are carefully designed to draw children back to the Bible, to ensure that each story reflects the character of God.  Often, key Scriptures are referenced so that they may be stored in a child’s heart. Lamplighter volumes are recognizable right away by their beautiful, high-quality bindings.  But the other unique feature of a Lamplighter book, in contrast to other publications of the same title, is that the Lamplighter editions have been enhanced with helpful footnotes and woven with threads of Biblical truths that will be etched into an awakened moral conscience. These characteristics are what make our Lamplighter Collection so unique and highly valued.
