...has received a wonderful review for the return of Princess Spaghetti in You Can't Scare a Princess (which is out tomorrow: Thursday 1st September)
Reviewed online by Library Mice, they hailed the return of the feisty and fearless Princess in her next adventure: 'Princess Spaghetti is back, hip hip hip hurrah!'
Library Mice elaborated asking '..how could you not love these books? There is something so utterly happy about the two stories, in the most exuberant and silly sense of the word. Gillian Rogerson has managed to keep the fun, quirky tone of the first story for this second adventure and it is a delight to read.'
Then adding that the great thing about the Princess Spaghetti books is how they play with readers' assumptions. She may be a Princess but, she is certainly no shrinking violet! Added to this strength, You Can't Scare a Princess manages to combine the normally gender-specific themes of pink princesses and nasty pirates into an accessible read for both boys and girls.
The review ends with a commendation on the successful partnership of author Gillian and illustrator Sarah McIntyre.
Go get 'em Princess!
