Goodreads

Princesses Rose and Josephine are ready for adventure. Readers have the ability to choose the direction of the story, and only two paths lead the princesses to a happy ending.

The idea behind this book is a good one, but the execution misses the mark. I was mostly confused while trying to figure out what was happening, and the choices weren’t obvious. The illustrations are colorful, whimsical, and help convey emotions and help build the story. Given the choose your own adventure style of this book, it woud be most appreciated by slightly older picture book readers — 2nd grade and up.
