nIncouldn’t find any information at all about why today would benPrincess Day—not even the flimsiest of excuses such as “Blah-blahnorganization has deemed that, henceforth, March 3 to be PrincessnDay.” But on at least two holiday lists, there it is – “March 3n– Princess Day.”
n
n
n
n
n
nAndnI thought, well, why not? Why not celebrate princesses?

Therenare plenty of interesting real-life princesses such as Princess Marynof Denmark, Princess Sirivannavari of Thailand, and Princess Sonam ofnBhutan. There are, of course, plenty of Disney princesses, rangingnfrom Snow White (whose film came out in 1938) to Elsa and Anna,nprincesses in the 2013 film Frozen. n

nThe Princess Diariesn – I rather liked these books about an ordinary American girl namednMia Thermopolis who discovers that she is actually a princess. Butnthere were a few times when I wanted to reach through the pages andngive Mia a little shake…I can’t quite remember why. Too whiny,nmaybe? n

nThe Paper Bag Princessn – I always like a princess who can do the saving!
