Princess: A True Story of Life Behind the Veil in Saudi Arabia

302 reviews
Jean 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 Bride: S. Morgenstern's Classic Tale of True Love and High Adventure

William Goldman

Harvest Books, 2007

Romance and adventure and political documentation!
There are so many times whilst reading this book that I just wanted to roll my eyes like no other... but then again, that's part of the charm of this nearly surreal, satirical fairy tale that still manages a heart of gold. The set-up is that this is an abridged version of a much longer, much more serious novel (not true, but it makes it a lot of fun). We get the "good parts", a wonderfully ...

Constantly Wonderful
This book was a great novel. I loved it from the first moment I started reading it until I was finished. It was captivating and yet suspenseful. Phillipa Gregory has the ability to create great fiction based on truth. I definitely recommend this book.

The Paper Bag Princess (Classic Munsch)

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 ...

A Little Princess (Puffin Classics)

Frances Hodgson Burnett

Puffin, 2008

Great Book with Valuable Lessons
My son and daughter were both enchanted by this story as I read it to them a few weeks ago. We all fell in love with Sara and her very active imagination. She inspired us to do good, as she did. I thought it provided an excellent opportunity for us to discuss how important it is to treat others with respect, even when you think you will gain nothing from it. Sara seemed to be nothing more ...

Rising Moon, 2003

Great for more than the 4-8 set it says!
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 Princess Diaries, Volume IX: Princess Mia (Princess Diaries)

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 ...

God's Little Princess Devotional Bible: Bible Storybook

Thomas Nelson, 2006

Great for the littlest princesses
I am the mother of three little girls; 5, 3, and 1; and almost every night before bed we read this book. It is set up in 4 page sections that first take a passage and break it down into simple language that relates to little girls. Then there is a section of the reading that relates it to the little girls life, sometimes there is a song or a play you can act out with your little princess. My ...

Great set
These books are pleasing to look at, have heavy paper with beautiful illustrations. The cloth like hardcover and illustration are much prettier in person than in the photograph.

Murder of a Medici Princess

6 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 ...

Best book to females getting themselves out of dream world!
I just love this book, and I read it before, but didn't buy it. I was going through a similiar issue, so I just went and bought the book, because this book is a must have for any princess who wants to grow up!

Hyperion Book CH, 2006

This book has a certain...something!
I adore this book! I picked it up while shopping in Anthropologie a few months ago and it's been in frequent rotation at bedtime in my home since then. I have a daughter who is four and infatuated with princesses. This book offers her the glimpse of royal life that she loves, while at the same time letting me get lost in the beautiful illustrations and quirky dialogue. You can't help but read ...

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 ...

M.M. Kaye's The Ordinary Princess: Ordinary and Fantastic in Delightful Harmony
One may know the story of the servant girl who gets to go to the ball, the story of the beautiful girl that falls in love with the beast, the princess that is finally awakened by a kiss from a dashing prince. But, it is quite possible that one may go half of her life before ever hearing the story of another girl, a princess in fact, who was born once upon a time in a land called Phantasmorania. ...
