The Starlight Slippers by Susan Maupin Schmid - ADVISABLE


Content: G.

BUYING ADVISORY:  EL, MS – ADVISABLE

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

Princess Mariposa is eagerly awaiting her real wedding day to her true prince, but in order to make everything special, she insists that she wants the Starlight Slippers described in Magnificent Wray’s writings.  Darling Dimple, however, would like to leave the slippers wherever they are, because she is sure that there is something magical and dangerous about them.  Only with the help of 100 dresses, and a bit from her friends,  will she be able to forestall dragon disaster.

Girls who love E.D. Baker will also love Darling and company.  I imagine that there is  at least one book coming, because Darling still has the mystery of her inheritance to solve. This would be a fun one as a bedtime family read!
