The princesses explain the area around Princess Summer’s
home. They enjoy seeing brightly colored
birds and watching a family of brush tailed opossums. They discovered a tiny baby koala that seems
to be injured or sick.
The rest of the story details ways the princesses tried to help
the sick baby koala. Their efforts range
from flying in a wild animal veterinarian to visiting a magic river. The book is a pleasant mix of practical
animal rescue techniques and touches of whimsy and fantasy. The princesses in this book are not helpless
damsels in distress however. They are
capable girls who know how to seek and obtain help when needed. They are good role models for young girls
reading this story because they find ways out of their own dilemmas.
I received this book free from the publishers in exchange for my honest review.
