Princess Minna loves to sort out mix-ups and mishaps in the kingdom! In this full-colour illustrated chapter book, join her on her hilarious quest to escape the Wicked Wood!
She can tame unicorns, kiss frogs and fight dragons (apart from Lorenzo) and she is very good at fixing things before it's time for bed. In The Wicked Wood, the King and Queen have DISAPPEARED! The townsfolk saw them and Lorenzo the dragon disappearing into the Wicked Wood and they haven't come back...
One by one, Minna's friends set off to find them. But they don't come back either! So Minna takes a deep breath and heads into the middle of the Wicked Wood, where she finds everyone eating the gingerbread walls of the house of the Wicked Witch! Quick - everyone must get home before nightfall! But how can they fly home when Lorenzo has eaten so much gingerbread that he can't get off the ground...
Full of colourful illustrations, these short, funny stories are perfect for readers just moving on from picture books and visual readers.
