How to be God's Little Princess. Royal tips for Manners, Etiquette, and True Beauty by Sheila Walsh. Sheila is also the author of the GiGi series.
There are a lot of things I like about this book and some things I really don;t care for.
I love that this book is about Manners. I think it is a very good idea to focus on girls having great manners as well as building Godly Character qualities in little girls. The thing I am concerned about with this book is the emphasis it seems to give about self beauty and image. As a child of God we are to put God first then others and then self.
Some great aspects of the book I really liked:
I liked that it teaches girls to set the table and proper place settings.
I like that it talked about having a good attitude.
Also the importance of good friendship
Some things I did not really care for:
One thing is about wearing the right kind of Tiara
Another thing is how to wave like a princess.
I think there are so many other more important aspects that I think Godly parents should encourage in their daughters above all the princess stuff work on being Christ like and building Character.
I received this book free for review from Thomas Nelson The opinions posted here are my own.

We've not read this book - we've read another GiGi book from the library and watched a video that was given to us.
My problem with it is that neither the book nor the video explained that being God's Princess involved making a decision to repent of sins, ask Jesus to live in your heart, and then live like Jesus wants you to live.
I am glad to know about that book because I have a little princess of my own. Thanks for the honest recommendation--I'll prepare myself for tiara talk!
