"The Little Lame Prince and his Travelling Cloak" is a children's story written by Dinah Maria Mulock Craik and published in 1875. The story follows Prince Dolor, who is paralyzed and exiled to a tower in a wasteland. He receives a magical cloak from a fairy godmother, allowing him to see but not touch the world. Using the cloak, he embarks on various adventures and gains wisdom and empathy. Eventually, he becomes a compassionate ruler. The story aims to stimulate positive feelings and promote socially correct actions. Critics have also found a deeper theme related to the restricted lives of Victorian women. The novel was first published in 1875 and has since been reprinted multiple times. Some critics have found the story too pitiful in sentiment, but it has provided comfort to many children. The full title of the first edition is "The Little Lame Prince and His Travelling Cloak: A Parable for Young and Old.
