Princess Furball

by Charlotte Huck (Author) Anita Lobel (Illustrator)

Reading Level: 4th − 5th Grade

A princess in a coat of a thousand furs hides her identity from a king who falls in love with her.  Instead of a fairy godmother, the princess relies on her own ingenuity.

Once upon a time a cruel King decided to betroth his motherless daughter to an Ogre in exchange for fifty wagons filled with silver. When the Princess learns what her father has done, she is horrified. But she is as clever as she is beautiful.

Quickly, the Princess devises a plan to escape and, relying on her own spunk and good sense, ultimately marries the man she chooses for herself.
