"Growing up in an Australian country town before World War I, Jackie Hanna and Cushie Moy live in a fairy-tale world where he is the prince and she the golden-haired princess.  They are too young for it to matter that Jackie is a dwarf whose mother keeps the grocer's shop, while Cushie's parents are rich and snobbish.  Theirs is an affinity they believe to be everlasting."
