The Princess Knight

Rating:
Summary: She still isn't complete without a man.
Review: Liked the message of keep trying. Liked the independence and the nice brother.

But no matter what this girl achieved,the story wasn't considered over until she was married.

Please read Rumpelstiltskin's Daughter instead.

Summary: The Princess Knight book review
Review: This book is just okay. The knight is not even mentioned in the story. And there ain't no princess either. Now come on, who writes a book with no princess or a knight if it is in the title? I believe that what is in the title should be included in the story. Maybe I am wrong. When I read Dr. Seuss books, if the book was The Cat and the Hat, there was a cat and a hat mentioned in the story. This story is just "different." Most of the books that I have read, mention the words that appear in the title. The books that don't, I usually don't enjoy. If you want to read a book like this, go ahead. I still enjoyed this book. But, nothing can compare to some of Cornelia Funke's other books, such as the Theif Lord.

Summary: Cute Girl Power Story
Review: This is an enjoyable story, especially for little girls. It crushes gender stereotypes while making you laugh. Within a funny, endearing story is the lesson that girls aren't helpless. I still like reading the traditional fairy tales (Cinderella, et al) to my daughter, but it's nice balancing them with an empowering story like this--and especially "The Paper Bag Princess" (my daughter's favorite).
