Learning to Read

Princess Imelda has come up with a way to escape from the boring old palace and see the world. But while she's gone, the king and queen are convinced that she's been turned into a frog. When the magician they've hired to change her back turns out to have a sinister plan, Imelda will have to do everything she can to prove that she is not a frog! This fairytale with a twist from highly successful author Maggie Pearson is perfect for children who are learning to read by themselves. It features engaging illustrations from Natalia Moore and quirky characters young readers will find hard to resist.
