The Paper Princess Flies Again: With Her Dog!
Kindergarten-Grade 2–In this third book about the Paper Princess, Lucy prepares for a fiesta and decides to give presents to her friends, Paper Princess and her dog. Wanting to give the girl something in return, the Princess and her pet go off on an adventure to locate that one special gift for her. They find themselves sailing on the wind, getting tangled in a kite, and even catching a ride on a tumbleweed. They arrive home just in time for the party and a happy ending. The layout of the text and pictures does not flow naturally, making it uneasy on the eyes. Although the illustrations are detailed, they are too busy, blending together too many details and making some of them unclear. Children unfamiliar with the first two tales might be confused about the characters and their abilities. Purchase only if you have a real following for the series.–Lisa S.
