Bookroo's summary

Princess Cassandra dreams of having a pet frog, but every kiss turns her new friend into a prince. With her castle overflowing with unwanted royalty, Cassandra must find a way to reverse the spell before her home bursts at the seams. Can she solve the magical mishap and finally have the frog companion she desires? Dive into this whimsical twist on a classic tale where friendship and magic collide in unexpected ways.

From the publisher

A delightfully funny reinvention of the classic fairy tale “The Frog Prince,” from author Veronica Bartles and illustrator Sara Palacios. Once upon a time there was a princess named Cassandra who had everything she could ever wish for…except a pet frog to be her best friend. So when the Royal Pet Handler finds her the perfect little green frog with bumpy brown spots, Cassandra couldn’t be happier. Until she gives her friend a good-night kiss and—WHOOSH!—he turns into a prince! But princes aren’t pets. Cassandra wants a frog! Soon her castle is overflowing with princes, and if Cassandra doesn’t find a way to fix the situation, her overcrowded castle might burst at the seams—and she may never have a frog of her own.
