BR 2-15: Stories of Princes & Princesses (Rawson, 2003)


'"Princes are boring!" she said.' (p.13).


This book has four stories. Each stories about strange Prince or Princesses. Clumsy, rude, dirty, smell... they are strange. But I like second story. This story is about princess, and she didn't want to marry with a prince. So the king let her marry with a beggar. The princess Prue accepted him because he was not a prince. But in fact, he was prince and he disguised into a beggar. When Prue noticed that, she didn't mind he is prince or not. She found true love.

BR 2-11: The Princess and the Pea (Davidson, 2004)


'Peg gasped. "You want to marry me, a palace maid? Yes, please!"' (p.46)

This book taught us true kindness, and warm heart. Prince Patrick wanted to real princess, means someone has kind heart and thinking. But he can't find such a perfect princess. He saw not real princesses. But he realized that his maid, travel mate has worth as true princess and they got married.
I agree to his opinion. If the look is good, it's not all the one has fine heart. The most important thing is character. I think Prince Patrick is clever and he is also real prince.

"'Ow!" cried Rapunzel. "Why do you always tug so much? Prince Hans never hurts me when be climbs.''' (p. 38).

This story is arranged by Disney, so many people may know this "Rapunzel." But story changes little bit. In this book, Rapunzel was cut her long, magical hair by witch, but in the story of Disney Rapunzel, her hair was cut by prince to kill the witch living with magic power of Rapunzel's hair. But there is a same setting, her tears has healing power. In this book, her tears healed prince's blind eyes. In Disney, her tears healed his injure stabbed by the witch.
