Princess And Troll: Once Upon A Time On

Princess Marie Antonette, who lives in a fairy-tale kingdom far away, is no ordinary girl. Her long, beautiful hair changes colour several times a day-from blue, to pink, to violet, and more! Her parents worry that she is sick, but the princess's fairy godmother knows best. Marie's hair is special and made of magic-and it is alive! It can move all by itself, and sometimes it can be very stubborn. However, her hair can also make dreams come true, changing colours to amuse the other children, and even turning into butterflies!

However, there is someone nearby who does not like the royal family, the princess, or any of the children who live in the kingdom. He is the troll who lives beneath the floorboards of the princess's room, and he is angry that everybody is so loud and having more fun than he. One day, he puts a mean spell on the princess's hair that turns it into a hideous mess, and instead of butterflies, terrifying beasts come out of it!

Both the troll and the princess are very unhappy, but one day they meet each other. The princess realizes that the troll is not evil-he is just misunderstood. Everybody deserves to be happy. However, will they be able to put aside their anger and differences to make peace?
