Bookroo's summary
In a whimsical twist on Sleeping Beauty, a sarcastic frog narrates the tale of a princess cursed into a dragon by a garlic-scented fairy. As she snores away in vibrant pink and purple scales, the question remains: can a prince break this unusual spell? Dive into a world where nothing is as it seems, and discover if true love's kiss can conquer even the quirkiest of curses. Will the prince succeed, or will the dragon princess remain in her enchanted slumber forever?
From the publisher
Everyone knows the story of Sleeping Beauty: A handsome prince rescues a beautiful princess from a wicked fairy’s terrible sleeping spell. This story is just like the original. Except for the sarcastic frog narrator, the garlic-scented fairy, and–oh yeah–the princess in this book not only sleeps and snores . . . she’s also been turned into a hot-pink and purple dragon! Certain to charm and delight fairy tale fans across the land, this raucous retelling is anything but a snoozer.
