    The Paper Bag Princess

    Story by Robert N. Munsch; Illustrations by Michael Martchenko (1980)

    When Elizabeth was a beautiful princess, she lived in a castle and had expensive

    princess clothes. She was going to marry a prince named Ronald.

    Unfortunately, a dragon smashed her castle, burned all her clothes with his fiery breath

    and carried off Prince Ronald.

    Elizabeth decided to chase the dragon and get Ronald back. She looked all over for

    something to wear but the only thing she could find that was not burnt was a paper bag.

    So she put on the paper bag and followed the dragon. He was easy to follow because

    he left a trail of burnt forests and houses' teeth.

    Finally, Elizabeth came to a cave with a large door that had a huge knocker on it. She

    took hold of the knocker and banged on the door. The dragon stuck his nose out the

    door and said, "Well, a princess! I love to eat princesses, but I have already eaten a

    whole castle today. I am a very busy dragon. Come back tomorrow." He slammed the

    door so fast that Elizabeth almost got her nose caught.

    "Is it true," said Elizabeth, "That you can burn up ten forests with your fiery breath?" "Oh,

    yes," said the dragon and he took a huge, deep breath and breathed out so much fire

    that he burnt up fifty forests.

    "Fantastic," said Elizabeth and the dragon took another huge breath and breathed out
    so much fire that he burnt up one hundred forests. "Magnificent," said Elizabeth, and

    the dragon took another huge breath, but this time nothing came out. The dragon didn't

    even have enough fire left to cook a meat ball.

    Elizabeth said, "Dragon, is it true that you can fly around the world in just ten seconds?"

    "Why, yes," said the dragon and jumped up and flew all the way around the world in just

    ten seconds. He was very tired when he got back, but Elizabeth shouted, "Fantastic, do

    it again!"

    So the dragon jumped up and flew around the whole world in just twenty seconds.

    When he got back he was too tired to talk and he lay down and went right to sleep.

    Elizabeth whispered very softly, "Hey, dragon." The dragon didn't move at all. She lifted

    up the dragon's ear and put her head right inside. She shouted as loud as she could,

    "Hey, dragon!" the dragon was so tired he didn't even move.

    Elizabeth walked right over the dragon and opened the door to the cave. There was

    Prince Ronald. He looked at her and said, "Boy, are you a mess! You smell like ashes,

    your hair is all tangled and you are wearing a dirty old paper bag. Come back when

    you're dressed like a real princess.

    "Ronald," said Elizabeth, "your clothes are really pretty and your hair is all neat. You

    look like a real prince, but you are a bum." They didn't get married after all.
