They are funny and keep her interest the whole way through Review: Perfect for little minds ready for a more complex story than picture books - My 4 year old boy was engaged enough we read through all 3 books in one sitting for he had to know what happens next. The stories can be repetitive, but that is enjoyed by little minds for they can predict what is going to happen and later have an easier time with reading on their own. Cute story and beautiful illustrations!

Highly recommend
I got this set to read to a 2 and 4 year old and they are hooked and have asked for them every day this week. We immediately ordered the second set. Cute stories with colorful illustrations on every page are fantastic for the littler crowd, there is enough repetition that they can chime in occasionally but I'm not bored, they get the perfect amount of frilly pink princess content balanced with strong independent empowered princess content, and the sentences are short and simple enough that when the 4 year old is ready to practice reading in the next year or two these should be great to work her way up to. This should be an add to cart no brainer for any kids 2-7 once they can sit still and listen to a few chapters or are ready to practice reading chapter books themselves.

What a fun series
I had not heard of this series. I stumbled upon it & decided to give it a try, buying both box sets. Gave it to each of my 5 year old grands for xmas. These books were a hit. Great stories. Fun illustrations. Wonderful series. I have no doubt they will love reading these to me as their reading skills grow. I chuckle when we read these stories. It’s wonderful to find a book series with a princess super hero. So much fun & a wonderfully positive message. Girls are awesome & kind super heroes.

Great chapter book for girls
Great early reader chapter book for my daughter. She seems to like the story and has reread them several times

I noticed results in my kid’s reading right away
At first I found all books super similar to each other. The stories are pretty similar and the same words are used over and over again but then I noticed how it makes my kid happy that she basically recognizes words without reading letter by letter. It made her read faster and more confident. Definitely recommend!

5 year old daughter really enjoys these - good level for sharing the reading with her as she moves to more independent reading

My daughter is obsessed with the Princess in Black. Great for her age. She is 6 and can easily read every word in these books.

My 4 and 7 year old boys love Princess in Black stories at bedtime. We have read them several times. Mr 7 does not like to read books to himself but happily reads several chapters at a time to the family dog. He is eagerly awaiting the arrival of the next book in the set so we can keep following the princess and her friends.
