This is a contemporary fairy tale yet it has a nice touch of nostalgia. This is a delightfully traditional children's book but with a fresh twist yet grounded in good old fashioned morals--what an easy diversion from real life! Crammed with sharp wit and charmingly written this little gem sparkles. All in all, a very entertaining first encounter with Kitty Princess that puts the reader into surprising familiarity with Kitty, Prince Quince and friends.
