I saw this movie right around the time it came out, but can barely remember it. So when I saw that this book was available at my library I thought, "why not?" This book was much better than I expected! It brought back a lot of good memories about the movie and I forgot how much I really liked Princess Merida.
Princess Merida's mother is trying to find her a husband, but Merida doesn't want to be married. She doesn't need someone to take care of her. She can take care of herself. She hates all the regulations that her society puts on women. Merida gets so mad that her family is trying to marry her off that she visits a witch. The witch helps her by putting a curse on her whole family. To set things right, Merida embarks on a quest and learns more about herself and builds an unlikely relationship with her mother.
This was a cute, easy read story that I enjoyed. Now I need to re-watch the movie :p

My five year old daughter picked this out at her school book fair and we’ve been reading it at bedtime for several weeks. We finished tonight. It was fine, as novelizations of beloved films go. I enjoyed trying to do the Scottish accents.

Last week I talked about how we have a special spot for Moana, because it was one of the first things Little Bear latched onto. Brave is the other one. Maybe because of Mommy’s red hair, maybe the colors, maybe the music. Whatever the reason, he absolutely loved, and still does love, that movie.
So as soon as I discovered that @yotoplay had a Brave card, I knew it had to be one of the first cards we got!
We absolutely love this audiobook!
The book is narrated by the actress Lucy Rayner, and she has the most wonderful accent. Little Bear can still understand everything she says, and her voice is just perfect for listening to for the almost 3 hour run time.
The book is adapted from the movie by Irene Trimble. She does an excellent job of really telling the story that we know and love in a whole new format.
If you aren’t familiar with Brave, it’s the story of a young woman who, in her ferver to not get married yet, foolishly and accidentally causes a curse to fall.
Merida and her mother travel far and back again in an effort to undo the curse and while doing so, learns that sometimes things are bigger than just herself…

Can get a little scary at moments, bear attacks.

Read it all the way through in a heavy Scottish brougue.
