Do you have a warrior princess in your house? I do! She is strong and fierce and loves to dress up. She also loves to go for a pony ride. So she really enjoyed the story and humor in this first picture book by Kate Beaton, THE PRINCESS AND THE PONY. We always have dress up princess moments that also include swords and fighting for what is right. So she truly enjoyed this story.
This is Kate’s first picture book and an exciting jump from comics to kids’ books. The pony of THE PRINCESS AND THE PONY is a long-time, beloved character from Kate’s webcomic Hark! A Vagrant.
About The Princess and the Pony
Princess Pinecone knows exactly what she wants for her birthday this year. A BIG horse. A STRONG horse. A horse fit for a WARRIOR PRINCESS! But when the day arrives, she doesn’t quite get the horse of her dreams…
From the artist behind the comic phenomenon Hark! A Vagrant, The Princess and the Pony is a laugh-out-loud story of brave warriors, big surprises, and falling in love with one unforgettable little pony.
