This hardback children’s picture book is a modern take on traditional fairy tales; princess Tilly doesn’t need rescuing by a handsome prince, she can rescue herself.!
The book is full of wonderful illustrations drawn by Jenny Lovlie.
What I like most about this book is that it challenges stereotyping and some of the princesses are of a mixed race or black ethnic.
Princesses break free is written by Timothy Knapman and is aimed at children over 3 years of age
Disclosure: I was gifted the book for the purpose of the review, but all opinions are my own.
It retails at £12.99
