Falconer, Ian Olivia and the Fairy Princesses. Illustrated by Ian Falconer. Atheneum Books for Young Readers, 2012. $17.99 Content: G PICTURE BOOK.
What girl doesn’t grow up thinking they want to be a fairy princess? Not Olivia. Olivia likes to stand out, but she also wants to fit in more than anything, too. Olivia likes to think outside of the box, but also wants to be accepted by all the other kids. So how will Olivia become the fairy princess she wants to be, but not be like all the other kids?
This book has the best twist at the end that I didn’t see coming. It had me laughing out loud the entire time I read it because it reminded me of myself as a little girl. The message is meant for both girls and boys that is it okay to be yourself and not be the typical “fairy princess” that everyone else is trying to be! This is a must read! Hilarious!
