Reach for this book when your child starts pushing back against gender stereotypes or feels frustrated by restrictive expectations. Whether they find traditional stories too quiet or simply prefer mud and adventure to tea parties and tiaras, this story provides the perfect humorous outlet. It follows Princess Cinnamon Clove, a girl who dreams of adventure but is trapped in a tower by a prince who only wants a trophy wife. Instead of waiting to be saved, she teams up with a dragon to reclaim her independence. This rhyming tale is a celebration of self-confidence and the courage to be different. It is perfectly suited for children aged 3 to 7, offering a lighthearted but firm rejection of the damsel in distress trope. Parents will appreciate the clever wordplay and the empowering message that true happiness comes from being your authentic self, even if that means being the worst at meeting someone else's expectations.
