I’m reading through the first three books in this series as part of the read-aloud program I put together for my five year-old. She’s obsessed with the Frozen princesses and really enjoys these. These books are simple enough and the chapters are just the right length to be able to read about one chapter per day without losing her attention. The writing here is nothing incredible, but it’s entertaining enough for little ones and simple enough for them to understand.

One of the critiques I have is that the binding seems to be terrible on all of these books. I’m not sure if we got a bad batch, or if they’re just cheaply done, but ours keep having entire chapters fall out! They also have metallic accents on the covers which flakes off in little pieces sometimes. The writing itself is ok and the story is engaging; the quality of the physical book, however, is sub-par.
