The Princess and the Frogs

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Sara Palacios. Lonely Princess Cassandra's search for a suitable pet seemingly ends with a frog. A kiss turns the frog into a prince who wants to marry her. "Princes aren't pets. I want a frog!" she declares. This happens repeatedly until, in a happily-ever-after ending, one of the frogs-turned-princes prefers being a frog. Colorful, mixed-media art complements the breezy nature of an old tale refreshingly retold.
