Description
Princess Minna lives in Castle Tall-Towers with her parents, the King and Queen. Princess Minna has a magic mirror that she will periodically ask to hear who is the best princess around. One day, she does this and is surprised to hear it give an unexpected answer – Princess Sky-Blue, visiting her kingdom from a neighboring land. Princess Minna gets jealous and sets out to trick Princess Sky-Blue to prove that she can’t actually be the best princess, and that the mirror must have made a mistake. The more Princess Minna works at this trickery, the more it backslides, making Minna have to take a good look at herself in the mirror and determine if the magic mirror could be correct after all.
The thing I love about Princess Minna stories is that there is always a relatable problem, particularly so for younger readers, and she ends up solving the problem with princessly grace, even if she has to learn some lessons along the way. The story is entertaining and keeps your attention throughout the book. The illustrations are always full-page and colorful, and there is never a lack of something to look at on each page.
