The Real Princess: A Mathemagical Tale


Author: Brenda Williams
Illustrator: Sophie Fatus

Ages: 3-6 years

I knew I was going to like this book because I have a Math degree. :-) But I loved it even more as my daughter was following along adding and subtracting with the action of the story. This is a new version of The Princess and the Pea.











From the jacket: "Far away, in a tall, turreted castle, live a king and queen with 3 sons, 4 horses, 6 dogs and many servants (45 altogether). The time has come for the eldest prince to find a wife, but only a *real* princess will do -- and how can he be sure she is real? Fortunately, his mother has a secret magical solution..."

Hardcover $16.99

I was on your homeschool blog; I'm so glad I checked out your other blogs. I love Barefoot Books, they're a great publisher! I just submitted a childen's book, it wasn't a fit for them :( but that hasn't diminished my love for their books. They're great!
