One should be able to say of a princess "She was as good as she was beautiful," according to "The Art of Being a Princess" (third revised edition), which the almost-thirteen-year-old Princess Imogene is supposed to be reading.

Instead, the princess turns into a frog herself! Thus launches a funny, wonderfully spun fractured fairy tale in which Imogene wonders if she will be forever frogified.
