Disney Princess Collection Book

God, my daughter loves this book. I mean, she really really *thinks* loves it. Know why? The pictures. She is princess obsessed and this book has lots of princess pictures. She loves lugging out this heavy collection at bed time and I cringe each time. The stories are horrendous. She tunes them out. She'll play with her doll after glancing at the picture for a few minutes. I read as quickly as I can, often leaving out entire inconsequential chunks or making up the plot entirely so she can flip on to the next page. I particularly dislike the Mulan stories which are violent and the Pocahontas stories which are a little weird. In all, this offers us nothing- no teachable moments or connections I can embellish on (I think there are attempts like in Heart of a Champion and in the one about Jasmine helping the orphan kids... but they're such crap who knows). I dread this book and try to bury it under the other, really good bedtime books.
