Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 3–Most children will relate to this precocious child and her endless questions as she and her father take a hike. The slightly bedraggled dad answers every query and supports his princess by holding her hand as she crosses the creek and hoisting her up on his shoulders so she can see a bird's nest. As they progress, the cartoon illustrations show the curious youngster, her ever-present pup, and the changing landscape. A scavenger hunt at the end sends the children back into the book to find hidden pictures. This is a really nice read-aloud for parents and teachers.–Beverly Combs, Webb Middle School, Garland, TX

Customer Reviews
As charming as the title implies!
When I read this book I was almost sure the author and illustrator must have been spying on my husband and daughter. This book is sure to delight any princess. I bought it for my husband to read to our 5yo, but our 9yo daughter liked it as well. Todays girls, who go from collecting rock to sniffing flowers to prancing around in princess costumes all in a matter of minutes, will definitely relate to this book. Eight thumbs up from my family!
Princess is a star!
I love the book Do Princesses Really Kiss Frogs? by Carmela LaVigna Coyle for several reasons. I love that the princess is on a walk with her involved, interested and caring father. Now that's a role model I want to see more of. I love the simple sentences done in rhyme. Kids will eat that up! And giggle all the while! I love that the princess is encouraged and cherished. And I love the colorful and inviting drawings that show us the wonders of life as the princess discovers each of them.
This book is a follow-up to Do Princesses Wear Hiking Boots? by the same author.
An engaging and recommended picturebook story
Mike Gordon's large and appealing drawings adeptly illustrate an engaging and recommended picturebook story of a princess and her father who wander through the woods observing wonders. Scary woods encounters such as bees and dragons are revealed as a father tells his daughter what might be encountered in a woods walk - or not.
