About this ebook

Petunia is NOT a princess. She doesn't want to be fancy or frilly and she certainly doesn't want another little princess moving in next door. But, when the newest neighbor likes pink and climbing trees, maybe Petunia can make a new friend and stay true to her self.

    A simple but efficient way to tell kids they shouldn't say No until they try it. People can still keep their opinion after trying to understand others. This book would be great to use in class, it would definitely start a lot of useful discussion among the students and help to improve their behavior outside the classroom. I'm glad it's NOT a rhyming book, although I understand those sometimes can be fun.

    Petunia is a little girl who lives in a house that is not a castle and she does not want to be a princess. Petunia loves wearing her favorite sweatshirt, not fancy, frilly dresses like the other princesses. Petunia likes to play outside and get messy. The other princesses do not play like Petunia they want to dance with their princes, so Petunia plays by herself. When a new girl moves in next door, Petunia is excited that she might have a friend, but Penelope is a Princess too. What Petunia finds out is that even though Penelope dresses like a princes, she likes to play outside and get messy too. In fact when Petunia gives it a try, she figures out that dancing can be fun. Penelope and Petunia become best friends.

    What a great story. We learn that it is okay to be different, little girls do not have to be princesses but can be messy and love sports and playing outside, that we should not judge people by appearances and we should give things a try because we might like them. This is a story that all kids need to read. It is great to be an individual and do what makes you happy. There were simple colourful illustrations that help to tell the story and show the emotion on the faces of the characters. A great book for family, school and class libraries. The publisher generously provided me with a copy of this book via Netgalley.

    Cute picture book with a wonderful message! Petunia is not a princess because she likes to get dirty, climb trees, catch lizards, etc. But, she's lonely. Lucky for her a new girl moves next door. She discovers that she can be friends with kids who like other stuff...like princesses. Illustrations are one of a kind.
