The illustrations are beautiful but the story didn't flow as well.

There are many things I could say, but I will settle for: girls, there are more important things in life than clothes!!!!

My five year old niece adores this book and begged me to read it over and over. She would give it a five. I disliked the message the book sent about a woman's whole focus in life being on looking good for a man. I would give it a one.

I split the difference and gave it a three

A very nice beginning reader's story book read.

Okay, I normally give these early reader princess books a pass because they are not geared to me at all, but to my 5 year old emergent reader who happens to be in love with all things girly. But, seriously, this was just an inane rhyming story about dresses - not even well written. :(

Ug. More Disney princess mass produced mush. "Fluff the dress. Put on the jewelry. Look your best." This is the princess stuff that makes people despise Disney.

I did not like this book because I do not like dresses. I also did not like this book because I do not like princesses.

Fairly simple princess book. I prefer the simple princesses without gawdy jewelry.

Super great book

Great book for girls that fits their interest and can make relatable to movies they’ve watched

I thought this book was great. It was a very easy read for children who are just learning to read. It rhymes which makes it even easier for children who are learning to read to be able to read it and understand it as well as have fun with it. The pictures are wonderful. I loved that there were so many different Disney princesses in this book. This book was amazing and I would definitely recommend it to children learning to read or anyone who just wants a super short fun Disney book to read. This book was fantastic!

I would have sworn we hadn't read this one before, but my review says we did two years ago. We deliberately don't read as many Disney princess books as we used to, but Natalie got this one from my mother who got it for a quarter. Can't go wrong with a book for a quarter! When I read it, I left off the rhyming words and Natalie filled them in. She got most of them right.

Forgive me, for heaven’s sake, - I adore Disney, and I can forgive princess cartoons for all their clichés and occasional universal silliness.
But I just can’t bring myself to teach a child to read from a book where six (!) girls insist that the most important thing in life is having a beautiful dress.
I’ll pass.

Two stars is generous. I mean, come on, I love the Disney princesses and roll my eyes at people who think they're the worst thing in the world. But even this one was too much for me, all dresses and looking your best. Give me Merida any time over this!

There is no story about getting a princess dress here. I was totally disapointed. I wanted the princesses to try on each others dresses or something. I am not happy at all about this. Ages 4+
