- The funny characters that the queen encounters in her “training” journey and the overly pouty look of the queen herself make up the funny side of the narrative.
- The illustrations bring out the extreme irony of the characters.
- From the fairy tale some teachings are drawn: not wanting to appropriate the happiness of others, not giving up in front of an obstacle BUT instead trying to transform what we do not like with the advice of wise and experienced people, lose the habit of complaining and learn to say thanks, train every day to achieve your goals, seek sharing with friends, know how to smile and laugh every day despite the problems.
