The Practical Princess

Rating:
Summary: Fairy Tale Princess-Mental Giant
Review: I loved this book as a child, so I had to find it online for my own kids. In this tale, the princess faces problems that vary between tricky and seemingly impossible. She becomes a heroine by keeping her head and using her mind to figure out the answer to each dilemma with grace, logic, and ingenuity, which is a valuable lesson for girls AND boys. In addition, the world that Jay Williams creates for his story is rich in mythic settings and creatures that really bring it to life.
