Excellent book for empowering little girls. My 3-year-old daughter loves this book so much, she "reads" it to me every night.

Haven't read this book since I was little but man, it's so great. Getting to read picture books for university never stops being awesome.

I LOVED this one. It's only 20-ish pages, but the message behind it is worth every star I gave. Plus, the princess is the coolest badass character, I would want to be friends with her.

Had to read for one of my Children's Literature classes, was such a cute book! Didn't realize how easily gender roles could be shown through childrens books!

I liked the premise of the fearless, smart princess who doesn't whine, just goes and saves the prince. But I overall was only moderately enchanted by the story. Something about it felt a little flat, maybe it was the language.

Possibly my favourite children's book ever. This princess has attitude, strength and courage, and it's up to her to rescue the prince! Once she does, however, he shuns her because of her looks and she skips off into the sunset alone. Really a good role model for girls - shows that you don't have to rely on being rescued yourself, and if the prince isn't right for you, there's plenty more fish in the sea.
