I like children's books and I am not even going to invent an excuse for reading this one. I read it because I wanted to. There.
I read it because I wanted to read a story about a princess who kisses a frog. Things went slighlty wrong and the frog prince didn't turn into a human prince, instead the princess turn into a frog.
And then they have a lot of adventures and epiphanies.
I liked how the frog prince was bent on saving and protecting the princess but somehow was always either asleep or not around when the danger struck, and the princess had to take care of herself (Bella, you look and learn). There was a lot of humour in the book (a pretend witch was called Vannabe) and no one was exceptionally pretty, people were short, had big noses, etc. And definitely no one sparkled in the sun.
On the other hand, there was a lot of bestiality in this book. I mean, human on frog action, then human and otter, there was also a hint of frog on snake thing. Apart from that, there was a prince who liked wearing women's shoes and apparently had really small feet (wink, wink). My, oh, my, just what exactly are we teaching our children?
(Don't get me started on the naked nymph).

When I was 8 I loved this, but now that I'm older I can see it's not perfect. However, I still liked it a lot and would recommend to a younger audience. It has great characters that are not perfect in any way, it is quite humorous, the prince isn't always saving the princess (actually the opposite ends up happening quite a lot) and there is character growth. The only weird thing is the age of the characters but, to be honest, when I was young I did not find it weird for a 14 year old to have to marry (and I guess in a magical kind of medieval world it is perhaps normal) and it is kind of insta-lovey.
I read this book 20 years ago. I definitely missed a lot of the jokes and humor. Did not regret reading again.
