Princess Stories from Around the World

by Kate Tym, Sophy Williams (Illustrations)

Welcome to a collection of princess stories with a difference. There's a princess here to appeal to everyone, from the bold girl with her wits about her who rescues a bewitched prince from the fairy folk, to the mysterious daughter of the Dragon King under the Sea waiting for her long-lost love. Kate Tym's chatty, humorous style retains the richness and depth of the original stories while making the book appealing to both children and adults, and Sophy Williams's exquisite signature pastels bring the stories vividly to life.

This might be the book that made me fall in love with fairy tales, especially when they don't go the way you expect.

[Samantha · Rating 4 out of 5]

These aren't your average princess stories but there are a few familiar ones in there (like Midas' touch). I thought the narrator added a lot of humor. And I pretty much love anything with Princesses in it. They are a little long for my attention span.

I love love love love love love love love love loved them. Because.
