This book should be required reading for all girls and their parents. In our day and age of "safe" sex and the attitude of sex as just something unwed couples do to pass time on saturday night this book sends a much different and needed message! Although the word "sex" is not used (instead "first kiss") the attitude towards purity is perfectly clear (it is a special gift from God to give your husband and not to be waisted on others). Countless girls are damaging themselves emotionally (and possibly physically) by getting involved in sexual acts before marriage and do not having a clue the effect it will have on them. Parents that take time to read this book WITH their daughters and have open conversions about it will not have to worry as much about the dangers girls young hearts will be facing in the teen years and beyond. I bought this as a gift for my niece, and will also be buying a copy for my daughter when she gets older. Thank you Jennie Bishop for creating a way to open up the doors of communication about such a touchy subject. I highly recommend the "Life Lessons from the Princess and the Kiss" to complement this book.Read full review
The Princess and the Kiss is an excellent book. It teaches young girls the value of saving themselves (their kisses) for their future husband. One of the exciting things about this book is that it also gives an overview of how to evaluate a suitor. It is easy to read and understand. It is beautifully illustrated, well written, and very entertaining. My daughters love it. I highly recommend this great book for the early stages of teaching your daughters to be pure, and introducing the subject of purity.
I searched far and wide for the perfect resource to explain Purity to my 7 year old daughter who was about to accept Christ, by being Baptized. This book illustrated Purity on her level, in her terms. All little girls want to be a princess. This story demonstrates the princess quality of saving yourself for your husband. I highly recommend this book. As an added bonus. If it sounds like this book is just for girls,the most important part of the book (the end) shows that the chosen betrothed also saved himself for his wife. Great Book!
Love this book! It is so important to teach our children about purity in relationships and this book has a simple message that our little ones can understand in doing so. They enjoy the illustrations, and are intrigued by the idea of saving their first kiss for the one they marry. If you desire to raise your children (or have an influence in other children's lives) with a heart of purity this is a great place to start. It even speaks to the older ones too. Very sweet.
This book was perfect for my almost 5 year old. We were able to talk about how important it was to save her kiss for that special person. How was I to know, a couple weeks later she was going to get kissed by a boy....Because of this book, she nicely told him off..."We're just kids. We're not supposed to kiss yet." YEAH! I was so glad for the perfect timing of this book...It has become her favorite book that she loves to share with everyone and have any and all adults read it to her.
