Description: "An empowering read for middle-grade girls; it presents strong female characters, a fun and smart lead, and it rolls with themes about harmony between people who are quite different from each other. Baker is a superstar, well versed in writing princesses who are more than what's typical or expected. . . . It's an added delight that the story's world is so vividly described and well fleshed out, making any reader wish they could visit." - Booklist online "Aislin is unfailingly brave and resourceful . . . Baker's world building is perfectly attuned to young sensibilities as she presents a realm of physical beauty, interspecies harmony, and mixed-race familial love for readers to visit and for Aislin to call home." -- BCCB, on More Than a Princess "Aislin's journey to self-acceptance is rewarding, and readers will easily draw parallels between Aislin's world and their own." -- Publishers Weekly, on More Than a Princess "Whenever Aislin heads outdoors, [the] author's gift for synthesizing nature and magic comes into play.... A quirky, imaginative tale." -- Kirkus Reviews, on More Than a Princess "Self-esteem building in a lively package for younger middle grade readers who enjoy light magical adventure tales." -- School Library Journal, on More Than a Princess "Baker (the Frog Princess series) gives this series starter a familiar, Disney feel, which will engage younger readers, while themes of courage and self-acceptance give it a powerfully positive message." -- Booklist, on More Than a Princess "Full of fun and whimsy. A delightful romp through a truly unique fairy tale world!" -- Jessica Day George, New York Times bestselling author of Tuesdays at the Castle, on The Fairy-Tale Matchmaker "Annie is an enjoyable, independent, and undaunted character, who uses wits and skills rather than spells in her endeavors." -- Kirkus Reviews on A Question of Magic "Slyly combines fairy-tale tropes . . . The humor and relationships created by Baker are happily reminiscent of such classics as Howl's Moving Castle ." -- Kirkus on A Question of Magic
