Love this feminist twist on the traditional princess story. My class at our women's college used this story as the basis of our May Day play!

November 18th #DaysDevotedTo Princess 👸 My favorite princess book from a #CanadianAuthor #FoodandLit @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Texreader @Catsandbooks

“You look like a princess, but you are not very smart.”

Teachers can use "The Paper Bag Princess" to spark discussions about gender roles and the importance of resilience and creativity. After reading, students can engage in activities such as rewriting the story from a different character's perspective or creating their own modern fairy tales that challenge traditional norms.

"The Paper Bag Princess" by Robert Munsch is a clever twist on traditional fairy tales, featuring a princess who outsmarts a dragon to rescue her prince. The story challenges gender stereotypes by showcasing the princess's resourcefulness and bravery. Munsch's engaging narrative and lively illustrations make it a favorite among young readers. This empowering tale encourages discussions about strength, independence, and redefining fairy tale norms.
