great awesome book submitted by rachelgoldberg on June 25, 2017, 9:36am This book is about a princess who fights monsters. Her secret is that nobody knows she's the Princess in Black because people think princesses should not wear black or fight monsters. (review by Margo)

Great transition from picture books to chapter books! submitted by jiac on August 25, 2017, 9:55pm We need more chapter books with lots of pictures! This was the perfect book to help my daughter transition from picture books to chapter books.

Great book submitted by Krystyna Goodrich on June 16, 2021, 11:05am I like the book because of how they give a new kind of princess.

Best book ever submitted by erksnerks on June 30, 2021, 9:15pm I love how the princess in black and Blackie the pony come out of the shoot of the castle and combat all of the monsters. Blackie the pony has special horse shoes that alert every time that there is a monster. So she goes in her tunnel and takes off her horn and her wig and becomes blackie the pony. And how the princess in black goes down the tunnel and every time she comes up her hair or crown or dress is always out of place.

I liked this story submitted by syosefgeneral on June 13, 2022, 7:28pm I like how the princess is secretly a superhero called The Princess in Black.

both my 4 and 7 year olds loved submitted by laurat on June 20, 2022, 12:02pm This was a great book for my 7 year old to read to herself, but once she was done my 4 year old wanted me to read it to her and we've probably read it 5 times since. Nice to find a book that works well for multiple age groups!

Good for kids submitted by TLW1998 on June 21, 2022, 11:44am My 5-6 year old daughter loves to read these books. They are easy to read beginning chapter books with few words on each page. A quick read about a Princess who changes her identity to fight monsters.

3 year old is obsessed submitted by Msprenger26 on July 2, 2022, 9:47pm It was a quick chapter book that was fun for parent to read and kid loved.

Excellent early chapter book submitted by dailyreader on July 23, 2023, 8:48am This book was a great introduction to chapter books. They are fun stories and filled with pictures as well. I also appreciate how fierce the princess is!
