It was okay, and I liked the twist at the end, but I was hoping the princess would be a little more feisty. There was too much explanation of the things princesses and dragons are "supposed" to do before it got to the message that really, either one can do whatever they want. I was looking forward to this book based on the title, but it let me down a little. There are definitely better books out there about being yourself and doing what you want, regardless of expected roles. ( )

The illustrations are adorable and the twist at the end is cute. ( )

I thought this book had a great message about acceptance and identity. Barney Saltzberg teaches children that it is okay to be whoever you want to be. If you want to be a princess, be a princess. If you want to be a dragon, be a dragon. If you want to be both, be both. ( )
