The Princess In Black is an adorable chapter book for young readers or for parents to read to their princesses. In the book Princess Magnolia is a prim and proper princess when she needs to be, but when the monster alarm goes off she swings into action as the princess in black. My girls are not yet old enough to read this themselves. They have really been enjoying having me read a chapter to them before bed, and they enjoy the illustrations as well. We can’t wait to see what other adventures Princess Magnolia will go on.
Has your child ever imagined they were a superhero?

My 2 year always talks about being a superhero. on day he's Superman, the next Spiderman and then Batman. It all depends on which pair of underwear he has on. :)

This is a very cute book with a new spin on princesses. I love books that engage young readers this way.

Sounds like an interesting story and little girls always have a wild imagination and I think my daughter would love this book, will check it out and add it to her Christmas list.. she always thinks she is superwomen already, thanks for sharing

never encouraged superhero fantasy--could be dangerous for the young

My girls would have been all into this when they were younger. They've always like superhero stories and this one is perfectly targeted towards girls!
