Review:

For every little girl who always wants to be a super hero But is told to be a princess guess what you can be both!!

Shannon Hale gives little girls everywhere the chance to be a princess and a hero at the same time. 

My daughter started reading this series in kindergarten after buying (Yes she bought it on her own) it at the school book fair.  This series brought my than kindergartner joy as she readers about her favorite rebellious princess in black.

My daughter is now in 4th grade and still buys the The Princess in Black series even though she finishes in a hour or less. The stories are tales being able to do what ever you desire with the help of friends and working together to find solutions.

This is a can't miss series for anyone with a girl who has been told she needs to be a princess when she really wants to be a hero!

The art is beautiful and tells tell the story the author has beautiful written.

Thank you to Netgalley for the advance copy of Shannon Hale The Princess in Black and the Giant Problem.

Synopsis:

The Princess in Black is ready for her snowy playdate with the Goat Avenger and the Princess in Blankets. It's a perfect day to build snow monsters and battle them for practice. But just when they're about to wage battle, a huge foot smashes their snow monster. "SQUASHY!"

It's a giant, and it's smashing everything in its path! The giant is too strong for the three friends, so the Princess in Blankets has an idea: it's time to light the Sparkle Signal and summon help. With a rising crescendo of a plot and a delightfully surprising ending, the latest adventure in the New York Times best-selling series features all the Princess in Black's friends as heroes for the first time.
