When the fiercest dragon in the whole world smashes Princess Elizabeth’s castle, burns all her clothes, and captures her fiancé, Prince Ronald, Elizabeth takes matters into her own hands. With her wits alone and nothing but a paper bag to wear, the princess challenges the dragon to show his strength in the hopes of saving the prince. But is it worth all that trouble?

Readers the world-over have fallen in love with this classic story of girl power. Now a newly designed Classic Munsch edition will introduce the tale to a new generation of young feminists.

It's a amazing story of a princess and a dragon. The dragon eats a bit of a castle! The princess went to find him.

I think it’s funny and the Dragon is really annoying.

Fox’s favourite part of the story is when the dragon pokes his nose out of the door.

I liked the dragon best. The book was good. I liked how Elizabeth saved Ronald. Ronald was unkind. It was a good thing they didn’t get married as he can’t be mean to her.
