The Princess Tales, Volume I (The Princess Tales, #1-3)

Gail Carson Levine

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

A kind sister and a cruel one. A charming prince. A spiteful fairy. A hundred-year snooze. A pea under a pile of mattresses. A kiss. All the familiar ingredients, but why is the punished sister happy? Where did that extra prince come from, and what does a flock of balding sheep or a fleck of tuna in a chocolate cake have to do with anything? Gail Carson Levine has waved her magic wand over three well-known fairy tales, and presto! They are transformed -- and sparklingly funny-in these delightful The Fairy's Mistake The Princess Test Princess Sonora and the Long Sleep Happily ever after has never been so hilarious!

Publication Year: 2003

    Gail Carson Levine is one of those amazing authors who never put out anything that isn't amazing. I wish her novels had existed before I was an adult because they would have been right up my alley in middle school. Of course they are still up my alley and I'm 40 so I guess it doesn't really matter.
