A new series for beginning/transitional readers. So excited about this one!!
Princess Magnolia appears to be your typical princess-dresses in pink, wears glass slippers, afraid of snails, and sneezes in the sunlight. But she has a secret! Duchess Wigtower comes for a visit and is determined to discover her secret.
*Highly recommend.
I read this book in one sitting to my two boys and they enjoyed it (even though my oldest is repulsed by anything princess!!).
Besides the Duchess and the Princess, other fun characters make this book engaging--monsters!!, an unicorn (or is he really an unicorn?!) and a goat boy (who is totally boy-he is a goat herder).
Colorful illustrations are on almost every page.
Perfect for building stamina.
Strategy: check for understanding (each chapter goes back and forth between different characters' points of view).
