Our family enjoyed this book a lot! My only complaint is that I wish she hadn't called him a bum at the end. That's now my two year old's favorite thing to call people... Yay...

The Paper Bag Princess Munsch for Kids Robert Munsch Michael Martchenko Books Reviews

The story is great - an engaging, fast-paced, and welcome counter-narrative to the princess-with-little-agency-who-needs-rescuing genre. It’s highly recommended by Mighty Girl, from which I clicked through in order to give them a small portion of the sale.

The writing is a shade too spare and clipped for me, and while I like the illustrations, they don’t “pop” as much as some other books. One star off for that.

A second star off for the packaging. It came in a one of those large mustard yellow lightly padded envelopes, and the mail carrier stuffed it into our mailbox. As a result, the paperback is somewhat curved and misshapen. Sturdier packaging would’ve helped. C’mon, !
This book is a New Family Favorite!!!!!! The story line was a little harder to keep up with for a five year old but it does offer many laughs. When the Princess is standing there "naked", it elicited deep belly laughs from Julie. Even though the drawing does not really show the girl naked because she is covered appropriately, Julie laughed and laughed that how could a girl be naked in a book? My daughter loved that the girl was wearing a paper bag. Did she have any under clothes on? Oh No! Is she still naked? While my daughter did not get that the Princess is the one that tires out the dragon, she did think it funny that the Dragon could no longer burn up the Princess. She thought that the Prince was rude to the girl but then she thought that the Princess was rude to the Prince at the end as well. I am so glad we bought this book because it is one that will be read over and over and over.
The rating is for the book, not the size of the book. After hearing of this book, we wanted to have a copy to read to our young family and friends. We were VERY surprised to see that this paperback was VERY tiny at only 3.5"inches x 0.1" x 3.5"inches. And after reading other reviews, it mentioned a 2nd picture showing the book in the palm of a hand. We did not see that when we ordered ours.

We would never have thought we had to check the "size" of a book when it did not mention in the title that it was a miniature series book.

That being said, we only paid $1.79, so we're not upset, just surprised. Our 3 year old family members will love it.
Have you ever worn a paper bag? What would you do if it rained?

The author, Robert Munsch, continues with his wonderful books. The author has a keen sense of humor, and if the ending doesn't fit how you think, it is always the best. In this book, Elizabeth the Princess has a wonderful life, she has beautiful expensive clothes, she lives in a big castle and is going to marry Ronald the Prince. Then, one day, the big bad Dragon comes along, burns down the castle, steals her clothes and carries off Ronald the Prince. The Princess found a paper bag and decided to wear it. Then off she went looking for the Dragon as he left destruction in his wake.

Parents/teachers will enjoy reading this book to their children. The children will be laughing at the funny language and the Princess's antics. There are lessons to be learned, and it is not the usual ones. The illustrations by Michael Martchenko, are bright, vivid, and beautiful. This story is so funny that everyone who reads it will love the ending.

SO SMALL. I apparently bought the postage stamp version of this book. Banana for scale.
This story is fantastic. My daughter is like most little girls, she loves Disney Princesses and although I like them too I am not overly fond of the message they send. This story is a wonderful and funny way to counter that message. The problem I have with the ACTUAL product is the size. This book is tiny, itty bity, minuscule, etc. If I put this "book" in my purse it will disappear and never be found again. If your child likes to hold the book while you read to him/her, you will have an issue with the size of this little paperback. Granted, it is a cute size to behold, but totally impractical. If you can find a larger size, buy it. I have attached a photo of the book next to a penny and a business card so you can get a good idea of how small this book really is.
It's ridiculous that you have to dig through the "read more" description to find out that this book is unnecessarily tiny, about 3 inches by 3 inches. Whomever designed this must not know anything about small children. My niece wanted to hear the story and look at the pictures but literally could not see them because everything was too small, so the present was completely useless. The size should be on the main description, not hidden in the detailed description. The book itself, though, is fantastic! We need more books like this for little ladies. I'm adding one star because it was very easy to get a refund and another because the book itself is very good, but that description is very misleading.
I love this story and read it as a child. I ordered it for Christmas for my girls and was so disappointed when it arrived. It is not a regular sized book like I had as a girl, but a tiny book that is the size of my palm. Looking over the description, I can see that if you click the "read more" link at the bottom, it does say that this is a mini book, but I really think it should be stated clearly in the page title.
Our family enjoyed this book a lot! My only complaint is that I wish she hadn't called him a bum at the end. That's now my two year old's favorite thing to call people... Yay...
