Cinderella watch out!!!,
This book is for every girl who, just once, would like to see the prince trapped in the tower and the princess slay the dragon. “Girls to the Rescue” is a collection of ten fairytales- all with strong, courageous, adventurous girls as the focus. Some of the tales are re-writes of classic tales (but with girls doing the rescuing instead of waiting to be rescued) while others are new, bold tales never before encountered. All make for good read alouds- short, to the point, and often quite comical. For every woman who wants her daughter to see that girls can do more than scrub floors for a wicked stepmother and try on glass slippers, this book is a must read!

|Look, I see a great book!,
The book was rather inspiring to me. However, I do recommend this book to fifth and sixth graders. I really like how the the girls are rescurers in this book, because almost in all books the men are the rescurers and I just hate it. Don’t you? Bruce Lansky is my favorite author. So I hope that my review really helps you.
