Cute Miniature Book

I bought the 3.5 x 3.2 sized edition. It's a good quality color book and very cute. The cover is not hardcover but a pretty sturdy softcover. Perfect size for purses, diaper bags, and pockets. Also might interest a collector of miniature books. The story is about a princess who rescues a prince from a dragon. It's a nice break from the majority of helpless princess books that most little girls want and read.

Buy this for your daughter! Or son!

Just a nice lesson in not judging a book by it's cover. Great drawings too.

Good for Little and Big Princesses Alike

This is one of my "Top Ten" children's books. It was given to my daughter by her aunt when she was born, and it has become a favorite of mine to read to her at night (my daughter that is - I don't read to her aunt). A great story for instilling the idea in a young girl that fairytales don't always end up the way you may think they will. Interestingly enough, it was also the perfect book for me to send to my 30 year old cousin, who had just broken up with her "bum" of a fiance! Plenty of fish in that big, blue sea.
Peace.

A great classis story

This book is so cute! A beautiful, silly classic story that should be on every kid's bookshelf.

Who Doesn't Like Elizabeth??

Really, who could complain about this book? My only problem is that it isn't longer! I was happy to buy this book for my daughter, as a reminder that looking good and being good aren't at all the same thing. We have enough books to tell our daughters to sit back and wait for a prince to come and rescue them. I have nothing against princes in general, but sometimes, even princes are bums.

Elizabeth knows this and teaches our daughters about their own power. Hurrah, Elizabeth - you are a princess of the highest order, singed hair and all!

Elizabeth, a beautiful princess, lives in a castle and wears fancy clothes. Just when she is about to marry Prince Ronald, a dragon smashes her castle, burns her clothes with his fiery breath, and prince-naps her dear Ronald. Undaunted and presumably unclad, she dons a large paper bag and sets off to find the dragon and her cherished prince. Once she's tracked down the rascally reptile, she flatters him into performing all sorts of dragonly stunts that eventually exhaust him, allowing her to rescue Prince Ronald. But what does Prince Not-So-Charming say when he sees her? "You smell like ashes, your hair is all tangled and you are wearing a dirty old paper bag. Come back when you are dressed like a real princess." (At least he has the courtesy not to mention that the princess's crown resembles a dying sea anemone.) In any case, let's just say that Princess Elizabeth and Prince Ronald do not, under any circumstances, live happily ever after. Canadian author Robert Munsch celebrates feisty females everywhere with this popular favorite, and Michael Martchenko's scratchy, comical, pen-and-ink drawings capture the tongue-in-cheek quality of this read-aloud crowd pleaser.
