2. The Clumsy Prince
3. The Little Mermaid
4. The Lost Pearl
5. The Twelve Dancing Princesses

An Invitation to Imagine

The stories are easy to follow and illustrated throughout. Many will already sound familiar to children or to the adults reading with them.

The Twelve Dancing Princesses is known from the Brothers Grimm collection. The Princess and the Pea and The Little Mermaid are by Hans Christian Andersen.

It is a book young readers can pick up readily, especially if they enjoy stories about princesses.
