Comment:
A fun twist on the traditional tale of the frog who turned into a prince. A tale that breaks princess and gender stereotypes as the toad princess needs a human prince to kiss. The main character is independent and brave. Children learn about gender equality in a very funny and attractive way. The pleasant and colourful illustrations help readers identify with the story.
