Princess Anya has a problem. Her older sister's latest suitor has been turned into a frog by their evil step-stepfather, and she has made a Sister Promise to save him. Now Anya is on a special quest with the frog prince, a royal magical dog, a half boy/ half newt and an otter turned human to make a magical lip balm, turn the frog back into a prince and save her kingdom from her evil step family.

This was very fun and whimsical, and I thoroughly enjoyed the silliness of this romp of an adventure. I'd highly recommend the audiobook of this as it was a delight to read and the narrator was really good with voices and different accents.

I loved Princess Anya - she is very much not a damsel in distress and was such a great female character, particularly a young one who knows her own mind and is great at taking charge of a situation. The play on different fairytale tropes and stories was very fun in this one such as Beware the Giant, and Snow White (the wizard) and the Seven Dwarves. I also highly enjoyed the glimpse we got at the coven of witches.

I obviously very much loved the Royal Dogs, and I would like one very much or would like to promote Roci and Dezzie to be my Royal Dogs.
