My 2 year old loves this book! And it's so wonderful to see a book that says, yeah, be a princess, but that doesn't mean you can be fun and make messes too! You can still be a real person. This book is fantastic!             The Constant Princess (Boleyn)169 reviews Philippa Gregory Touchstone, 2006 Great into a character lost in history The Constant Princess explored from childhood Katherine of Aragon's life. Most of us I think just know her as the queen Henry VIII first put aside trying to get a legitimate male heir to his throne. But I had no idea the history she went through from her parents to the extent of her efforts to gain a marriage to Henry in the first place. I realize this is historical fiction but it does give you a ...             Princess Ben20 reviews Catherine Murdock Houghton Mifflin, 2008 Princess Ben This is a delightful imaginative book that will take the reader into a new land.             A Little Princess (Puffin Classics)136 reviews Frances Hodgson Burnett Puffin, 2008 One of my favorite stories! (submitted by [EoN] FrenchFryMayo) When I was in third grade, I longed for a story that I could actually enjoy and remember nearly everything that goes on. You see, I couldn't find ANYTHING interesting until I found Secret Garden, Black Beauty, and A Little Princess, all of which I literally COULDN'T PUT DOWN. Now in fifth grade, I continue to read these books again and again and again and again and again and again and again ...             The Paper Bag Princess (Classic Munsch)110 reviews Robert N. Munsch Annick Press, 1992 Smart and brave trumps cuteness Although this fairy tale is a nearly thirty-year-old classic, it is still timely for girls. The book was a birthday present for a great granddaughter named Elizabeth, who loved reading a story about a heroine who shares her name. But the book pleased her even more because Elizabeth the heroine is smart and brave, and learns that sometimes handsome princes are just silly and not worth the ...             Princess & the Kiss: A Story of God's Gift of Purity65 reviews Jennie Bishop Warner Press, 2000 AMAZING!!! A STORY OF GOD'S GIFT OF PURITY WHICH IS BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN AND ILLUSTRATED. A TEAR UP EVERY TIME I READ IT TO MY LITTLE GIRLS.             Princess Academy100 reviews Shannon Hale Bloomsbury USA Children's Books, 2007 Hard Realities in a Soft Fantasy More a story about work ethic, facing reality, and ability to adapt to changes with whatever talent one posesses, this is a wonderful "fairy tale" for people of any age to read. Rather than the glossy Cinderella pablum that has everyone fast-forwarding to "happily ever after," here the heroine embraces her own physical and character flaws, understands the importance of education, hard work, and ...             The Princess Bride: S. Morgenstern's Classic Tale of True Love and High Adventure672 reviews William Goldman Harvest Books, 2007 Real Fantasy I was afraid to read this book and avoided it for many years. I so dearly love the movie and I just didn't want to be disappointed either way. If the book was better, as is usually the case, then my movie experience would be tarnished. If the movie was better then I'd be wasting my time with the book. Well nevermind to all of that, because I LOVE this book and now the two separate entities ...             His Princess: Love Letters from Your King (His Princess)27 reviews Sheri Rose Shepherd Multnomah Books, 2004 It made our Retreat a Hit! We chose this book as a foundation for our Women's Retreat. Not only was the theme a springboard for our speakers and breakout sessions, it added inspiration for the treats and decorations. We were pampered as Princesses and we found out how much our Daddy, The King adores us! Low self-esteem is a huge problem for many women, and it was an important issue to tackle. I'm so glad we went back ...             Princess: A True Story of Life Behind the Veil in Saudi Arabia301 reviews Jean P. Sasson Windsor-Brooke Books, 2001 God bless you, Jean P. Sasson. I read this book without regard to ethnicity or political belief. I read it as a woman -- as a human being who suffered at the thought of what other women are enduring in the name of "religion" or "culture." There is no explanation possible to make this palatable to anyone with a conscience. To let it pass without mention is an abomination, akin to denying the Holocaust. There is no ...             The Princess Diaries, Volume IX: Princess Mia (Princess Diaries)21 reviews Meg Cabot HarperTeen, 2008 The magic is back! Being a 13 year old girl, I thought this book was great. Princess on the Brink (Volume 8), was a major disappointment to me, but in Princess Mia, all of the magic was recaptured. This book starts off right where Princess on the Brink left off. After Mia and Michael's tragic break-up (To be honest with you, this sort of made me happy. I was never a big fan of Michael to begin with), Mia ...             The Disney Princess Little Golden Book Library (Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Cinderella, Little Mermaid, ...5 reviews Golden Books Golden/Disney, 2004 Princess Lovers will Enjoy This Any little girl who likes Disney princesses, will love these books. Little Golden Books are always a hit with my children, and these little books are just the same. Cute books for bedtime stories.             Pink Princess Cookbook12 reviews Barbara Beery Gibbs Smith, Publisher, 2006 Lovely book for beginners, highly collectable for foodies. This is a great little cookbook for little girls. All the ingredients are simple and accessable with results that are not only yummy but appealing to look at. The pleasing result is what will hook a child. I have seen some critics complain that Beery's cookbook's for children are too simplistic and is taken up by too many pictures. Hello! It's a book for children. The picture is what will ...             Murder of a Medici Princess6 reviews Caroline P. Murphy Oxford University Press, USA, 2008 A story of family conflicts, furious politics and a mystery At first, I scoffed at the title, thinking that this might be a work of fiction, and a real potboiler at that. And to be honest, despite my fondness for historical novels, nearly every other novel set in the sixteenth century seemed lately to be centered on either Tudor England or Renaissance Italy -- and both of them done to death. But in spite of my misgivings, this turned out to be a ...             A Princess Primer26 reviews Stephanie True Peters Dutton Juvenile, 2006 A Princess Prmer Everyone has been so pleased with this book. Saturday it was actually being passed around the family with lots of ooos & ahhhs. Very worthwhile book.             Disney Princesses Look and Find (Look and Find (Publications International))6 reviews John Kurtz Publications International, 2004 Disney Princess/Look And Find I like this book.It is a nice book because you have to look for the princesses things. you have to read this book and find the things.             Princess Smartypants20 reviews Putnam Juvenile, 2005 Hurrah for Smartypants My children just loved this story. Very humorous, easy for intermediate readers on their own or beginner readers with a little assistance. There's not much to this story, it seemed to end too quickly. However, it's perfect for bedtime or short-story reading in the classroom. If you're worried about feminist ideals: Be careful that your own opinions don't hinder the "flavor" of this story, young ...             Where is the Mango Princess?47 reviews Cathy Crimmins Vintage, 2001 Well-written, Powerful and Excellent! I read this book in four nights, right before bed. I tore through it like no other memoir before. This book, for me, was like reading my own parents' memoir. My father suffered a TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) when I was four/five years old. Of course, so much of what was available to the author's husband was simply not around 45 years ago. I understand so much more why my father acted the way he ...             Project Princess (The Princess Diaries, Vol. 4 1/2)58 reviews Meg Cabot HarperTeen, 2003 Project Princess This book was okay. Very short, easy to read. It covers what Mia is doing on her spring break and how she has a hard time adapting to the wilderness because she is a city girl. But I think she's gotta get used to it, if she wants to save the whales or whatever. But it's only fifty pages, and you should read it because after all you gotta take the good with the bad and if you loved her other ...             The Princess and the Goblin (Puffin Classics - the Essential Collection)42 reviews George Macdonald Puffin, 1997 One of the best fantasy books period So it's written for children but I could hardly tell the difference. The simplicity of the storytelling made it all the more appealing and the veins of courage, humilty, and human frailty running through it were impressive and awe inspiring. Like I said it's simple but don't let that word fool you. It's brilliantly written and encourages the reader to look at his or her own character.
