For every parent tired of telling their kids to PLEASE JUST GET ALONG, this hilarious and imaginative new picture book--from the beloved creators of Babymouse--is here to help. Sort of.

Meet the Evil Princess and the Brave Knight. She casts terrible spells, while he fights dragons. He rescues cats in distress, while she makes mischief. No wonder there isn't much peace in this kingdom! But is the Evil Princess really so evil? And is the Brave Knight truly as chivalrous as he seems? Children and parents will laugh at seeing familiar family dynamics play out in this charming and imaginative new story.

My Thoughts: I really enjoyed this story about siblings and how they didn't or did get along. It was funny, entertaining, and very on point. I loved how the evil princess was evil - but you can't be evil by yourself. I loved how the brave knight was brave and then he wasn't. It's also hard being brave by yourself. But together, the pair became their true selves. I enjoyed the mirror. I loved how the cat played a huge role. It reminded me of my days growing up with my sister and out cat. A fantastic book with wonderful illustrations that will delight readers of all ages. This is a must have book for both school and public libraries!
