Items related to The Big Princess
A king, a queen and one very big princess... A witty, wonderful and warm-hearted prequel to The Tiny King by acclaimed picture book maker, Taro Miura. Once upon a time ... a king and queen discover, among their flowers, the teensiest, tiniest princess. Such a charming, sweet little thing! They are instantly taken with her - she becomes the daughter they never had, the child they had always dreamed of. The Queen immediately sets about finding her a perfect-sized bed and only a tiny ring box will do. But, in no time at all, the princess grows too big for her miniature bed. In fact, with each passing day, the princess grows bigger and bigger. Soon, she is taller than her parents, taller than her bedroom ... and the princess keeps growing until her head pokes through the top of even the tallest tower! Can the King figure out how to break the spell and save his beloved princess before his castle crumbles and falls?

From School Library Journal:
PreS-Gr 2—A stunning follow-up to the The Tiny King (Candlewick, 2013), this Japanese fairy tale presents the story of a lovely little princess found in the garden. The king and queen give her all of the same comforts that they would a daughter. To the royal family's surprise, the tiny princess grows leaps and bounds each day until her head grows right through the tallest tower. Illustrated with colorful cutouts, this book is a visual delight. The unique digital collage artwork will inspire a host of related art activities. VERDICT The Big Princess is bound to be a big hit.—Betsy Davison, Cortland Free Library, NY
