The book was the Phoenix Award honor book. An unabridged audio-book recording was released by Recorded Books in , narrated by Charlotte Parry , and is currently available via Audible. Roderick Huston, a wealthy merchant and widower, has three daughters; Grace, Hope, and Honour. When Honour was a child she asked what her name meant and afterwards said she'd rather be named Beauty, a nickname which soon stuck. As she grows older, she feels the nickname is increasingly ill-fitting, as she remains plain while her sisters become lovelier and more socially adept. Grace becomes engaged to Robert Tucker, one of her father's ship captains, and Hope to a blacksmith named Gervain Woodhouse. When all of Huston's ships are lost at sea, Robert is presumed dead and the family become destitute.

This is a great gift for little ones. It is great entertainment plus a learning tool. We have had the tag system for a year and my daughter has learned a lot with these books. Very good quality. The only problem we had in the beginning was the pages ripping because she was not careful enough with them.
