Hooray for a princess with spunk who gets around in a paper bag after a dragon destroys her castle, defeats the dragon with her intellect, and ditches the prat prince she was supposed to marry. Now here's a good role model. :)

That was great! Feminist fairy tales! Very funny and good, it plays with the gender stereotypes and can be useful to talk about those with kids. Awesome book in today time, and even greater if we consider it was written 40 years ago!!

I LOVE THIS BOOK! It completely subverts the damsel-in-distress trope and presents a feisty, independent princess.
