About Princess Battle Royale:
In this action-packed picture book, the fairytale princesses compete in an epic MMA (that’s mixed magical arts) tournament and try to defeat the reigning champion, the Swan Princess!
Welcome, ladies and gents to the WPW: World Princess Wrestling! Princesses from all over the globe will battle for a chance to be crowned victor and wear the Enchanted Championship Belt. But first, they have to defeat the reigning champ: the baddest bird of the ballet–Swan Princess!
Rapunzel the Reaper is up first, but her signature Hair Whiplash is defeated by the Swan Princess’ Plie Driver! Next up, we have the Little Mermaid, but she finds herself in her own tail jail. Sleeping Beauty gives it a go and is put in a sleeper hold.
Round after round, one princess after another goes down at the wings of the current titleholder. Can anyone take down this Brawny Swan?!
It turns out that Little Red has been watching from the sidelines and is ready to activate Wolf Mode and enter the ring. Could this once-overlooked towel girl be the hero that these princesses need?
With words by Phaea Crede and illustrations by New York Times bestselling illustrator Jen Hill, this is a thrilling picture book that is filled with puns and is a fresh take on the world’s well-known fairytale characters.
