The Princess Tales 1-2



Summary: Once upon a time...A kind sister and a cruel one. A charming prince. A spiteful fairy. A hundred-year snooze. A pea under a pile of mattresses. A kiss.

All the familiar ingredients, but why is the punished sister happy? Where did that extra prince come from, and what does a flock of balding sheep or a fleck of tuna in a chocolate cake have to do with anything?

Thoughts: I love Gail Carson Levine's writings. She turns all the typical fairytale concepts into crazy and humorous tales that are modern enough to be easily read by all ages while retaining all the most loved aspects of their older contemporaries!

Content: Aside from magic, perfectly clean for all ages!
