This was a weird, mixed up version of The Frog Prince. I didn't like it very much. It was very strange and wasn't my type of book.

Princess Emeralda a.k.a. Emma isn't exactly an ideal princess. Her laugh is more like a donkey's bray than tinkling bells, she trips over her own feet and she does not like Prince Jorge, whom her mother hopes she will marry. But if Emma ever thought to escape her troubles, she never expected it to happen by turning into a frog! When convinced to kiss a frog so he might return to being a prince, somehow the spell is reversed and Emma turns into a frog herself! Thus begins their adventure-a quest to return to human form.
Fascinating and hilarious characters ranging from a self-conscious but friendly bat to a surprisingly loyal snake and a wise green witch confirm that readers won't soon forget this madcap story.

Best book I've ever read so far! So similar to the book I read last month. I really would recommend this book to 5th graders.
Wow! Best book ever!
The Frog Princess is one of my favorite princess stories ever. Princess Emeralda feels to everyone reading like a normal girl, compared to a faraway perfect princess who never does anything wrong. I have read almost all of E. D. Baker's books and this is definitely one of my favorites.
I really like this book. The author makes you feel like you are standing right next to her. I completely forget where i am when I read ED Baker's writing. THis book is about an adventurous princess named Emerelda, nicknamed Emma. She meets a talking frog, who wants their lips to meet. As this unusual frog is very convincing, the Princess does so. after that, her whole world is turned upside down. These two go through many breath drawing adventures together, all ending for the better. ED Baker does an unbelievable job by writing this enchanting story.
My favorite book IN THE UNIVERSE!!!
I love this book! In my top favorite 5 books!!!
This is a really good book. It is about a princess who isn't what you would think of when someone says princess. she gets tricked into kissing a frog and gets turned into one herself! She then has to find a way to become human again!
I love this book! It is very well written. Other books by ED Baker are fantastic too
I like it, but later in the series it becomes boring.
