About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is struggling with the 'boring' parts of being good, such as waiting their turn or choosing kindness when a shortcut seems easier. Princess Pulverizer is a relatable hero who finds the hard work of a Knight-in-Training exhausting. When she meets two identical witches, she is tempted by the 'bad' witch's promise of a quick fix to her quest. It is an ideal bridge for children moving into longer chapter books who enjoy slapstick humor and magical mishaps. Through Princess Pulverizer's struggle to stay on the path of kindness, parents can open a dialogue about the value of character over instant gratification. The story uses a lighthearted fantasy setting to explore real-world impulses toward impatience and the importance of choosing friends who bring out our best selves.
