The Frog Princess
by Rosalind AllchinEvery morning Frog imagines how wonderful life would be -- if only she were a princess. Now the Prince has lost his golf ball in the pond and has promised anything to the one who can find it. Could it be that her wish is about to come true? The horrified prince dodges Frog's marriage request by offering her the chance to try out the role of princess first. But the life of a princess is not at all what Frog expects. There are so many rules, rituals and responsibilities. What happened to the romance? Or the fun? And most importantly -- what ever happened to lunch? With more than a touch of modern humor, author and illustrator Rosalind Allchin injects new energy into the traditional brothers Grimm tale. Her spirited text and vibrant illustrations create a delectable feast sure to leave children and parents fully satisfied after every read!
