Adorable, sweet story. Perfect ending. Enjoyed very much. Nice to take a step back into this age-genre. I'll be sure my daughter reads it, too! ( )

What a darling story. Very simple and straightforward in the best tradition of fairy tales but just so sweet and charming. ( )

This was a read for Milliways.

It was also all sorts of adorable. I sat down meaning to read the first half one night, and to finish it the next day, but it went so quickly and so cutely, I could not help staying up, flipping pages, until I got to the end. The puns are adorable, the main characters are endlessly lovable, and it is a beautiful little fairy tale. ( )

I heard about this on a Twitter thread started by Gail Carriger, and I thought it might be just the thing after finishing a gritty urban fantasy novel earlier today.

What an adorable story! I adored Princess Amy, the fairy Crustacea, and dear dear Peregrine. I loved that Amy liked herself and knew her own mind—the letter she left when she decided to run away was priceless. And the scenes with Peregrine were so sweet! I enjoyed the author’s sense of humor as well.

This was a comforting, quick read, and I’m sure I’ll read it again.

P.S. Don’t skip the author’s intro when you read it! ( )

In the vein of Ella Enchanted, this cute and cleverly written children's book subverts the traditional fairytale while still providing a heartwarming happy ending. There are also some very charming illustrations. ( )
