Reseñas de la Crítica

"Continues the evolution of the series from a simple retelling of a well-known fairy tale into an entertaining saga featuring a fully developed magical world of its own.” (School Library Journal)

Great! For all ages.

Loved it. great for all ages. Very entertaining. Finished too quickly LOL I am glad it is a part of a series

Good Soup

Amazing book and great story. Very much Recommend I loved it and I know you would to it’s so good and not to long or to short and my favorite part, there’s a happy ending (mostly)

Another thrilling book in the series

This book is a great addition to the Frog Princess series. It really helps you understand Emma's aunt's childhood.

Cute story!

I enjoyed this story! It was entertaining and pulled me in from beginning to end. It was cool to see Grassina as a young girl and watch her adventures as her mother was cursed and she becomes the Green Witch. I read this book after reading the Frog Princess ones with Princess Emma and I can see this one being fine to read as the first book in the series prequel or as the 5th after the main ones with Emma and Eadric. It was cool to go back and see Grassina as a young girl and watch her interact with both her sister and mother as well as her father and then after her mother is cursed as she deals with everything. I also loved getting to see her meeting with Hayward and how they came to build a friendship and more. This story had plenty of adventure and magic happening as Grassina had to learn to adapt with everything happening around her and the dangers that continued to grow. This story was well written and engaging and I had a lot of fun with it.
The narrator did a great job with the characters and story and bringing it to life.

Delightfully Magical

It was wonderful to hear from Princess Emma’s aunt Grassina and hear her story of how she got her magic. A beautiful series!

Tss

I did like the story but It was to slow and very predictable to me and I didn't care to much for the characters
