14 years old girl named Princess Emeralda, nicknamed Emma has met an frog who is actually prince himself, his name is Prince Eadric (pretty unusual name for me) Eadric is under the spell by the evil witch, Vannabe, and then when Emma kissed Eadric, she too became an frog, but Emma got to know how the frogs surive throughout being as a well er frog. But this book has inculded an little bit of comedy, teamwork...and this book also teach the readers not to judge others about how they looks like...I`m not going to lie, this book is pretty GOOD! I would def recommend this 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.

This book reminds me of a princess doesn't cry like when I lost my crush.
I agree with ya'll this book and its series(and its author) is awesome!
Emma is a big chance for princess lovers! The adventure of a froggy life time is waiting for you under the cover of the book.And once you read this, read the rest of the series ,too!
I like children's books and I am not even going to invent an excuse for reading this one. I read it because I wanted to. There. I read it because I wanted to read a story about a princess who kisses a frog. Things went slighlty wrong and the frog prince didn't turn into a human prince, instead the princess turn into a frog. And then they have a lot of adventures and epiphanies. I liked how the frog prince was bent on saving and protecting the princess but somehow was always either asleep or not around when the danger struck, and the princess had to take care of herself (Bella, you look and learn). There was a lot of humour in the book (a pretend witch was called Vannabe) and no one was exceptionally pretty, people were short, had big noses, etc. And definitely no one sparkled in the sun.
The Frog Princess is one of my favorite books. Princess Emeralda, otherwise known as Princess Emma, is not your typical princess. She is clumsy, and has the laugh of a donkey, and she doesn't like the self-centered Prince Jorge who her mother wants her to marry. Instead she likes to explore the swamp and and learning about magic from her Aunt Grassina. One day when she is in her favorite place-the swamp, she meets a talking frog named Eadric. Eadric claims to be a prince, and he needs Emma to kiss him to turn him back into a prince. Emma consents, but something goes horribly wrong when Emma turns into a frog as well. Now Emma and Eadric must make a journey full of danger and predators in order to find a cure. I absolutely love this book, and the rest of the series. E.D. Baker is a fantastic writer, and her stories are weaved with magic and plot twists! I recommend this book to middle grade kids, around ages 8-12. I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.
I really loved the book!! I guess each one of us wants to be a princess, and a special one <3
