These 30 true stories of take-charge princesses from around the world and throughout history offer a different kind of bedtime story . . . Pop history meets a funny, feminist point-of-view in these illustrated tales ofroyal terrors who make modern gossip queens seem as demure as Snow White (New York Post). You think you know her story. Youve read the Brothers Grimm, youve watched the Disney cartoons, and you cheered as these virtuous women lived happily ever after. But real princesses didnt always get happy endingsand had very little in common with Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Belle, or Ariel. Featuring illustrations by Wicked cover artist, Douglas Smith, Princesses Behaving Badly tells the true stories of famous (Marie Antoinette; LucreziaBorgia)and some not-so-famousprincesses throughout history and around the world, including Princess Stephanie von Hohenlohe, a Nazi spy. Empress Elisabeth of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, who slept wearing a mask of raw veal. Princess Olga of Kiev, who slaughtered her way to sainthood. Princess Lakshmibai, who waged war on the battlefield with her toddler strapped to her back. Some were villains, some were heroes, some were just plain crazy. But none of these princesses felt constrained to our notions oflady-like behavior.
