Sir Princess Petra

Reach for this book when your child expresses frustration with being told how to act or what hobbies they should have based on their gender or status. It is a perfect fit for the spirited child who feels more at home in the dirt than in a parlor, or for anyone who feels like a square peg in a round hole. Princess Petra is expected to learn royal etiquette, but her heart is set on becoming a knight. To prove her worth, she must complete a dangerous quest that leads to an unexpected friendship with a dragon named Snarls. The story explores themes of self-confidence, breaking stereotypes, and the importance of staying true to one's identity. Written with a lighthearted, humorous tone, it is highly accessible for independent readers aged 7 to 10 and provides a wonderful bridge into the world of fantasy adventure.
