Reviews

"Some of the best children's books ever written have been about girls--like The Paper Bag Princess."--The New York Times

Included in "Louise Erdrich's 10 Favorite Books to Read to Kids." 

"Witty, vibrant and original."

"A classic feminist picture book."

"This humorous story sends an assuring message to readers about women's (and girls) potential to break through sex-role stereotyping. This book, a pioneer of a slowly growing genre of non-traditional prince and princess stories, introduces a positive image of an empowered woman for children and adults alike."

"A great girl-power story." 

"One of the best princess stories ever told, Elizabeth turns the princess stereotype on its head, empowering young girls to be true to themselves."

"Remains a staple in the KidLit pantheon."

"A trailblazer in gender-bending picture books."

"Munsch is brilliant, and this tale has a message of empowerment for young girls and equality for young boys."
