Cover of Would You Rather Be a Princess or a Dragon?Would You Rather Be a Princess or a Dragon?Barney Saltzberg, illustrated by Barney SaltzbergThis rhyming book asks whether someone should act like a princess or a dragon. It presents princesses and dragons as contrasting possibilities, then says a person can be both. The questions invite readers to consider the two roles rather than choose only one. Bold illustrations accompany the snappy rhymes and the princess-and-dragon comparisons. The book's central idea is that these imaginative identities can coexist.Under FiveLexile Text Measure 329LATOS Book Level 2.4On the same reading list for the same age or grade groupView book details
