Sir Princess Petra by Diane Mae Robinson

7 MarFIRST Let me say…HAPPY INTERNATIONAL READ ALOUD DAY!!Today is International Read Aloud Day!To celebrate see the video at the end of my review!Sir Princess Petra – The Pen Pieyu Adventures

By Diane Mae Robinson

68 pages – ages 7+

Publisher: Tate Publishing (January 17, 2012)

When Princess Petra’s royal birthday comes, granting her anything her heart desires, she wishes to become a royal knight. Her parents aren’t too happy and tell her girls can’t be knights…but there is no official rule to stop her.

Petra has to complete a task to become a knight and the task was to hush the howling, nasty dragon that lives in the forest of DOOM (which might not be as easy as it sounds). Yet Petra, full of confidence, sets off to face all the dangers that a knight will face. Bees, hawks, beastly bog rats and enemy knights can’t stop Petra, but can she hush the dragon?

Sir Princess Petra by Diane Mae Robinson

Sir Princess Petra: The Pen Pieyu Adventures

Sir Princess Petra – Our Review

I liked this book because it has a great story line and a great message about believing in yourself. Petra proves that she and all girls can be daring, adventurous and brave. I think Petra was a great character and I liked Snarls (the dragon) even better because he had good sense and dragons are just cool.

The book is a beginning chapter book so there isn’t a lot of details in it but it tells a complete story. The black and white illustrations in the book are really great too. The book is part of “The Pen Pieyu Adventures.” I hope that means there will be more books about Petra coming out! This book is an awesome beginning chapter book and a great read aloud…hey that gives me an idea…KEEP READING!!

Susanna Leonard Hill March 7, 2012 at 7:06 am #Loved the review – I think Petra and Phyllis would hit it off famously!  But I loved the video even more – especially your curtsy, and your portrayal of the Queen! Excellent job! Enjoy Read Aloud Day – maybe you’ll get to do some extra allowed reading during school

Patricia Tilton March 7, 2012 at 1:01 pm #Happy Read Aloud Day Erik! I loved your video — see some acting talent there. Does’t surprise me. You did a great job with the video. Hope we see more. Now we know what you look and sound like. Great book review — I thought of Bruce Coville’s Unicorn Chronicles during your review. Think I’d like this book. Beth posted your review under the Emma Walton Hamilton’s Children’s Book Hub on FB today.

thiskidreviewsbooks March 7, 2012 at 8:47 pm #Thank you Ms. Tilton! I am glad you like my “acting”! I haven’t read Mr. Coville’s Unicorn Chronicles. I read his book “My Teacher is an Alien” and I wasn’ fond of it (I just thought it was too weird). I looked up The Unicorn Chronicles and it looks like a series I would like. I am going to give it a try! I will also look up Ms. Hamilton’s “book hub”! Thank you!!

Patricia Tilton March 7, 2012 at 10:29 pm #You’re in for a treat with the “Unicorn Chronicles.” The protagonist is a girl, but there are many lively masculine characters. Reminded me a bit of C.S. Lewis. In fact, I will read them again. They are that good!

Lynn A. Davidson March 7, 2012 at 6:20 pm #Erik, this was great! I would say that if a girl can save her kingdom, a boy can certainly curtsy – a fine curtsy too, I might add. 

Your reading of this story made it appealing. Thanks!

Wow!!!! I knew you would like this book, but I didn’t realize what a salesman you are. I think you have everyone who commented wanting to buy this book. The author is going to love you for it.

I never thought to do a video reading aloud for World Read Aloud Day. You did a great job. I love how you animated some of the words. That really makes the story much more interesting to hear. Such a multi-talent you are.

Bravo!
