This is a Robin McKinley compilation of several short fairy tales. I found it to be mostly uninspiring, like almost all short stories, but enjoyable and charming for what it is. There are four stories, some much longer than others, and our theme for the day is princesses. There are two original tales, as well as two retellings: the princess and the frog (my favorite, and the shortest) and the twelve dancing princesses.

Overall, I remain puzzled by the fact that I ADORE McKinley's Damar-world books, but have been somewhat less than impressed by everything else I've read from her.
