  I did not particularly like this book. I am not going to go out of my way to read the other books in this series. It was a slow read for such a short book. It was difficult to follow at places and some of the characters were just annoying.

  This is about several Brothers Grimm fairy tale princesses who all go to the same school. It is that time of year when the Princess School competes against the witches from nearby Grimm School in the Maiden Games. You will recognize the characters although some names have been changed to prevent Disney from slapping a copyright lawsuit against the author and publisher.
  
  This is poorly written. I have read other books aimed at this age group that are better. The most annoying flaw is the constant need to restate each character’s name multiple times a paragraph. Does the author think the reader is so stupid that she (this is marketed towards girls) can’t remember that it was Snow White talking just a sentence ago?

  I know I definitely enjoyed this more when I was nine than I did when I just reread this, which means I am now Too Old. Snow, who is usually so happy and easy-going, is anxious because her stepmother is being creepy and “watching” her because she doesn’t want them to win in their school rivalry game or whatever. Ella is getting more attention ever since she became belle of the ball. Rose is jealous of Ella. Rapunzel is their class’s team captain for the game, and she is being too harsh on everyone.

  Nice reinterpretation of the Snow White and the seven dwarves fairy tale in a childish manner! This series is so easy and simple and cute!

  Cute story for young kids, has a lot of good lessons about jealousy.

  I'm a little disappointed in this one. The games turn out to be less like the hunger games or the triwizard tournament and more like field day at elementary school. Or a company picnic.
  
  There are some interesting little competitions. The three-legged race, not so much. But full contact maypole. Awesome. Each team is going one way around the maypole and the first team to get a player's ribbon wrapped 10 times around the pole wins. Reminded me a little of what I know of roller derby. (What I know of roller derby is very little.)
  
  Meanwhile Snow White is angsting about her wicked stepmother, who's headmistress of the witch school. And she has a crisis of confidence. While Sleeping Beauty is jealous of all the attention Cinderella's been getting.
  
  And they all learn to stand up to wicked stepmothers, stop being jealous, and um.. work together as a team to defeat the evil witches.
  
  Which is my major problem with the book. All of the witches at the Grimm school are portrayed as ugly and mean. No good witches? No even.. kinda neutral witches? I guess I'm particularly annoyed by this because if /I/ lived in this world, it'd be the witch school I'd be attending. Even if I was a squib! No way you're putting me in a princess school. And the witches aren't even allowed to use magic during the games! Discrimination, that is.
  
  I am, perhaps, committed now to keep going.
  
  Oh, and they're definitely 10. I made note of that this time.

  I enjoyed this book. I read it on an afternoon when I was suffering from a cold and didn't have the brain power to handle a longer book. The story is rather straight forward, rival schools compete for a prize that is awarded once a year. Our heroine must conquer her personal fears to help the Princess School beat the Grimms (Witch School). The book is peppered with cute references to the various fairy tales these princesses are taken from and anyone who is familiar with the stories can guess at things to come in this story.
  
  MrCaligula is currently about half way through the book and also enjoying it. His main comment is that it's "very dramatic" and that the main characters tend to live their lives through exclamation points!!!!

  This series is sweet and simple. The viewpoint will switch from the main princess's point of view to a different point of view every other chapter. They teach about the importance of friends, family, forgiveness and bravery. The girls may become jealous of each other, they may become angry, but they will eventually apologize. They are forgiven and the girls band together to help sort out whatever problem was being dealt with in that book.

  This is a cute series. No big exciting twists or anything, but perfect for my 3rd grade girl. It's a fun idea to put Rapunzel, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White and Cinderella in Princess Training school together and they work together to solve their problems. I enjoyed seeing them develop their own personalities. It's age appropriate, which is about all you can ask for at this level.

  I really enjoyed reading this book. If you love the story Snow White, this has the same concept and theme to it, but it is also different with what happens and what this Snow White goes through. There are many twist throughout the book as well which makes it very interesting!
