Book Review: Excellent!
Summary: 5 Stars
What does it mean to be a princess? That is the theme readers explore as they move through each vignette in this charming book. On the left hand side of each double-page spread, the main charactera spunky little girlasks her mother a question such as, Do princesses climb trees? and Do princesses have to do any chores? On the right hand page, the mother answers, always in the affirmative. The rhyming text is cleverly and colorfully illustrated with cartoon-like line drawings. Each scene captures perfectly the spirited and likeable main character.
At the conclusion of the story, the little girl asks her mother, Mommy, do princesses seem at all like me? to which her mother replies, Look inside yourself and see When the reader turns the page, there she finds a framed mirror, with her own face reflected, and beside it the words, A princess is a place in your heart. A fitting and perfect ending to a winning tale.
