Princess Elizabeth is slated to marry Prince Ronald when a dragon attacks the castle and kidnaps Ronald. With her dress burned up, Elizabeth has no choice but to wear a paper bag, but there's no way she's going to let some dragon interfere with HER happily ever after! In resourceful and humorous fashion, Elizabeth finds the dragon, outsmarts him, and rescues Ronald, easy as pie.
Except Ronald is less than pleased at her un-princess-like appearance, and isn't very nice about it, either. Maybe her Prince "Charming" isn't a part of her "happily ever after" after all.... This laugh-out-loud modern classic with its empowering message is sure to delight a new generation of Mighty Girls!

"Canadian author Robert Munsch celebrates feisty females everywhere with this popular favorite, and Michael Martchenko's scratchy, comical, pen-and-ink drawings capture the tongue-in-cheek quality of this read-aloud crowd pleaser." — Karin Snelson, Amazon.com Reviews
