Reach for this book when your child feels stifled by what others expect of them, or when they need to see that 'kindness' can be a bold, active choice rather than just being quiet and polite. It is a fantastic tool for children who possess a strong sense of justice but struggle to express it within traditional social roles. In this third installment of the series, Princess Pulverizer continues her Quest of Kindness to prove she is worthy of Knight School. Alongside her friends Lucas and Dribble the dragon, she must rescue a kidnapped jester to bring laughter back to a gloomy kingdom. The story uses humor and light fantasy to explore themes of self-confidence and the idea that true bravery involves helping others in ways that play to your own unique strengths. At 144 pages with frequent illustrations, it is perfectly calibrated for second through fourth graders. Parents will appreciate the witty wordplay and the positive message that being a 'tough' girl and a 'kind' person are not mutually exclusive traits.
