You Won't Catch These Girls Dancing

Twelve Terribly Active Princesses who were not Exactly Dancing is a "fractured fairy tale" that imagines what would happen in the twelve dancing princesses were actually sneaking into a fairy world in order to play baseball. In this fun and beautifully illustrated story, the 12 Princesses take their baseball skills to the next level when an unassuming young field manager stumbles on to their secret.

This fairy tale retelling is a short chapter book suitable as a read aloud or for young, advanced readers. It's perfect for fans of Ursula LeGuin's Catwings or Ruth Stiles Gannett's My Father's Dragon.
