Every little girl dreams about being a princess, but what kind of princess does she want to be? These books are filled with self-reliant, independent, courageous princesses, not just the traditional princess that waits for a man to save her. So if you don't love the damsel-in-distress type, or simply want to add in some variety to the princess world, we recommend these books with self-reliant princesses that are proud of who they are and can make things happen.
