The Lost Princess: A Double Story, first published in 1875 as The Wise Woman: A Parable, is a fairy tale novel by George MacDonald.

The story describes how a woman of mysterious powers pays visits to two very different young girls: one a princess, the other a shepherd's daughter. It has been regarded as ahead of its time in its approach to parenting.[1]

The story draws from the Book of Proverbs in the Bible with its illustrations of Wisdom personified, the fool, and the proud in heart.[1]
