About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when their child is in a deep princess phase, but they are ready for a story that breaks the traditional mold with a dose of pure silliness. This book is a delightful A to Z romp featuring twenty-six princesses, each engaged in a comically un-royal activity. Princess Beatrice burps, Princess Petunia passes gas, and Princess Yolanda plays the yogurt. It's a wonderful celebration of joy and imagination, showing that princesses can be goofy, active, and funny. Perfect for preschoolers, this book uses humor and a simple alphabet structure to entertain while subtly expanding a child's idea of what a princess (or any girl) can be.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
N/A. The book is entirely focused on lighthearted humor and contains no sensitive topics.
Ideal Reader
A 3 to 5-year-old who loves princesses but also has a well-developed silly streak. This is perfect for the child who enjoys dress-up but also loves making funny noises and being physically active. It's a great choice for parents who want to gently subvert the passive princess trope for their child.
Parent Prep
No preparation is necessary. This book can be read cold and enjoyed immediately. A parent might want to be ready to embrace the silliness, perhaps by making up their own alliterative princess sentences with their child after the story is finished. A parent has just heard their child say, 'Princesses have to be quiet and pretty.' They are looking for a book that shatters that stereotype with laughter and shows that girls can be funny, strong, and delightfully weird, all while wearing a crown.
