內容簡介
內容簡介 不一樣的公主,忠於自我的靈魂「魔鏡呀魔鏡!是什麼能成就一名完美的公主呢?」這將不再只是追求美貌、有禮與服從的傳統公主的故事,而是會起身拯救自我的新時代公主。而這些公主各有他們的特色與個性,有智取拯救人民的公主、有彪悍勇敢的公主與勇於冒險犯難的公主。結合大家所熟知的魔鏡故事元素,傳達不一樣的公主傳奇。Here are princesses for the Rebel Girls generation: bold, empowered, and determined to be true to themselves.“Mirror, mirror on the wall . . . what makes a princess excellent?” When an enchantress flings her magic mirror into our universe, its reflection reveals princesses who refuse to be just pretty, polite, and obedient. These are girls determined to do the rescuing themselves. Princess Leila of the desert protects her people from the king with the black-and-gold banner; Princess Tica takes a crocodile for a pet; Princess Ellen explores the high seas; Princess Abayome puts empathy and kindness above being royal; and in a tower block, Princess saves her community’s beloved garden from the hands of urban developers.Connecting these stories is the magic mirror, which reveals itself when each girl needs it most, illuminating how a princess’s power comes not from her title or beauty, but from her own inner strength. These beautifully imagined stories, complemented by vibrant and inviting artwork, offer the pleasure and familiarity of traditional tales with refreshingly modern themes."
