Princess Elizabeth lived in a castle and was to marry Prince Ronald. He was a spoiled Prince. One day a dragon came and ruined the castle, burned all of Elizabeth’s clothes, and took off with the Prince. Elizabeth makes a paper bag dress for herself to wear and goes to rescue her prince.This is the 25 year edition full of how the story came to Robert Munsch and the real life Elizabeth who inspired the story. There was also a very interest biography on both Robert Munsch and Michael Martchenko. I enjoyed all the background information as much as the story.
This is a fun story with a twist at the end. The illustrations were beautiful. I want to thank Mr. Munsch for making the main character Princess Elizabeth a strong female with thoughts of her own. this is a must read, for little girls especially. Highly recommended!
