Reviews for Princesses Are Not Perfect

[amandalk-1 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This book is a wonderful fairytale, all about three princesses who each have one specialty, baking, woodshop, or gardening, and one day they decide that since "princesses are good at everything" they should just switch jobs for the fun of it, which turns out to be a big mistake. They learn that princesses are NOT perfect, but good at doing what they love. This would be a great book for little girls during their "princess stage" in early elementary school.
