Power to the Princess: 15 Favourite Fairytales Retold with Girl Power

by Vita Murrow, illustrated by Julia Bereciartu - £12.99  Frances Lincoln Childrens Books (2018)
hardback    ISBN 13: 9781786032027 | ISBN 10: 1786032023

What if princesses didn’t always marry Prince Charming and live happily ever after? In this stunning anthology – elegantly presented in a red, clothbound hard cover with gold-toned metallic debossing – 15 favourite fairytales have been retold for a new generation. These princesses are smart, funny, and kind, and can do anything they set their minds to.
 
Focused on issues including self-image, confidence, LGBTQ, friendship, advocacy and disability, these stories are perfect for sharing between parents and children, or for older princesses or princes to read by themselves. They teach that a princess is a person who seeks to help others, is open to learning new things, and looks for ways to add purpose to their lives and the lives of those around them.
