1: A childhood favorite
I remembered this book for years after I lost my copy....and finally realized how easy it was to replace. Am I glad I did! What I remembered best was the art, especially the pictures of the princess in her amazing dresses, but upon reading it again for the first time in at least a decade, I found that the story itself was still as good as I remembered. Very well-written, and it was easy to imagine myself in her place. Great emotion. I love this book!

2: The Princess In Disguise
Although this story is commonly thought to be a variation of the tale of Cinderella, it is actually based on another Grimm's fairytale called "The Princess in Disguise". While in the original, the protagonist is irritatingly meek and eventually agrees to marry her father, "Princess Furball" reinvents the heroine as a clever and cunning protagonist who escapes the life her father chooses for her and instead finds happiness on her own terms. A fabulous tale with great morals for a younger female audience.

3: Undiscovered treasure
I have been searching for this book for years! I read it one time when I was about 8 years old, and fell in love with the story. Many years later, after forgetting the title and author, I have finally found it! I have spent countless hours searching for this book on-line and in bookstores. Princess Furball is a wonderful, inspiring version of Cinderella. I love that she isn't a damsel in distress that lets everybody do stuff for her, because in my mind that's not a heroine! Princess Furball has spunk!

4: Please read this book.
The book Princess Furball is a good book because it is full of surprises. Her father is going to make her marry an ogre! The book is full of surprising twists and turns. I think that you should read this book.

5: Fantastic Fairy Tale
I have been trying to find a copy of this book for over a year. A librarian read it to my class when I was just a little kid and I loved it. Upon finding it on Amazon I remembered why...it was such a great story. Not your average princess, she uses resourcefulness and her wits to take charge of her fate. Now my best friend is expecting her first child and I am excited to have someone to get this book for.
