What a wonderfully inclusive fairy tale. It is very obvious that Princess Caroline, and Prince Oskar have both heard the story of the Frog Princess. When they meet their own magical frog, a kiss from Caroline does not work. So Oskar sets out to make the two fall in love. It’s just a different two fell in love than was expected. When Oskar kisses Frog Alex, Prince Alex is released to live happily ever after. When I say this story is inclusive I mean it. Princess Caroline is not your usual princess. She is okay with not wanting a love interest. She is in love with herself and her life. Prince Oskar is open to friendship in all it’s form. Prince Alex is a nice guy, and also a POC. I love this book. It’s a little long, but a great choice for inclusive storytimes.
