Once Upon a Curse

Description

In the exciting third book in E.D. Baker's beloved Frog Princess series, Princess Emma charms her way through adventure and adversity - and now through time! The Frog Princess was the inspiration for Disney's hit movie The Princess and the Frog! Many years ago, a slighted fairy placed a curse on a beautiful young princess - a curse that caused her and all her female descendants to turn into mean, ugly witches if they ever touched a flower after turning sixteen. Now Princess Emma, who is about to turn sixteen herself, is determined to break the spell once and for all. Emma travels back in time to the day the curse was placed on her ancestor in the hope of preventing it from being cast. Unfortunately she is thwarted in her efforts - until she overhears the instructions for how to break it. Armed with this knowledge, Emma returns to her own time full of hope. But disaster ensues and Emma almost gives up completely - until true love shows itself in the most unexpected place of all. Don't miss the rest of the Frog Princess series by E. D.
