I received a sample for this review/feature. Opinions expressed are my own.
There is nothing quite like the smell of new books (or is it just me that smells them?). Here are three cute new books for kids from Sky Pony Press that your little ones should enjoy.
DARING PRINCE DASHING for ages 3-6 is a fun and unique new take on the classic Cinderella story. Prince Dashing was the daring sort and the night of the royal ice cream social he meets a girl as adventurous as he is! But as these stories go at the stroke of bedtime, the girl hurries off, leaving behind her mysterious stick thingy. Dashing ventures out to search for the stick’s owner but of course he does so in his own crazy way. For a friendship like this one he can never give up!

Prince Dashing is daring and will stop at nothing to find a new friend!
Prince Dashing bathes with crocodiles, eats while dangling upside down from the tallest trees, and toasts s?mores by dragon’s breath.
The night of the royal ice cream social, he meets a girl as adventurous as he is. But at the stroke of bedtime, the girl hurries off, leaving behind her mysterious stick. In his usual daring way, Dashing ventures out to search for the stick’s owner. He gallops by groups of thugs, tromps past toothy crocodiles, and eventually stumbles into the zoo. Will he ever find his friend?
Follow Dashing and one equally daring girl in this humorous tale of fearless fun and friendship.
The second book in the Piglet Bo series, PIGLET BO IS NOT SCARED! for ages 3-6 is a whimsical story that will capture the hearts of children and adults alike. Piglet Bo insists that he is not scared. This playful tale of a pig who just can?t admit he’s afraid is sure something kids can relate to!

Piglet Bo insists that he is not scared. Not scared of anything and not scared of anyone. And if you think he seems scared, well, you?re misunderstanding the situation. Really, Piglet Bo can?t go into the dark cave because he doesn?t want to disturb the bats. And he can?t go into the deep pit because he’s pretty sure the termites are having a birthday party and it would be rude to show up without a gift. But what are those shadows lurking on each page? How long can Piglet Bo’s excuses last?
