A charming little fairy tale about a princess given the gift of Ordinariness when she is a baby. The writing skips and jumps along wonderfully; it asks to be read aloud.

A fairy tale in which the princess has no unusual beauty or charm. Simple and innocent, suitable for any age, but unlikely to be terribly popular in a day when "edgy" is preferred.

A witty little book about a princess whose fairy gift of ordinariness made her contently normal and her parents comically frustrated. It would be a great book to read aloud to young girls.

My mother gave me this book when I was young. It has always meant a lot to me. Even the ordinary can be princesses.

Quick easy read. Definetely a childrens book. I'd have my daughter read it I suppose. Nothing to shout about though.
