Known for adapting classic stories for younger readers, this author is best associated with a rewritten edition of The Little Lame Prince. Very little biographical information appears to be publicly documented, which gives the work an unusual air of mystery.

by Margaret Waters, Dinah Maria Mulock Craik
Margaret Waters is credited as the author of The Little Lame Prince: Rewritten for Young Readers, an adaptation of Dinah Maria Mulock Craik’s classic story. Publicly available catalog pages and ebook listings consistently connect that title with her name.
Beyond that book credit, reliable biographical details are scarce. I wasn’t able to confirm dates, background, nationality, or a broader body of work from dependable sources, so it’s best to treat her as a lightly documented author known mainly through this retelling.
That said, her name remains attached to a version of a well-loved children’s story designed to make the original more accessible for young readers, which is likely why modern readers still come across her work today.
