Princess Smartypants
This is the story of a young lady who, being a modern short of person, likes to do her own thing. Getting married to a Prince is not in her plan, so when various Princes turn up to seek her hand she sets them the most impossible tasks; all of them that is until the final one, Prince Swashbuckle. He succeeds where the others have failed and only when our heroine changes him into a frog does he depart, in his sports car and looking extraordinarily cross. Strong female characters are hard to find in children's books, but here's good one in a story that's both unexpected and amusing. Highly recommended!
