An awful ogre is terrorizing the kingdom and the king wants his precious granddaughters to stay safe. But the princesses have other ideas. So, they go on an adventure involving danger, dancing and a daring rescue to stop the evil ogre.

Aimed at children aged 3-6, Don't Mess with a Princess seamlessly blends the old with the new. While
the setting may be traditional, the princesses are anything but. The illustrations are full of color and detail, conveying both darkness and danger as well as action and humor.

An engaging read that will keep young eyes glued to the pages as the princesses save the day.… (mehr)

I received an ARC from Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review. My thoughts and opinions are my own.

Audrey is persistent and doesn't give up! I really enjoyed reading about the wacky inventions she created (wondering what they would be and how they would work), and they aren't small or simple. She goes big every time.

Her father is incredibly encouraging, even though I'm sure his house/yard will be forever damaged. He wants Audrey to succeed, and I think that helps her stay motivated when things don't work out the way she wants them to.

Eventually one of her inventions does what she intended it to do, and now her cat can rest easy (for now) without worrying about being cat-apulted into the air. I think this was a creative book about having big ideas and bringing them to life.
