PRINCESSES ON THE RUN is an exuberant princess story that shows the cure for boredom is getting up and going out. Whimsical stylized art shows familiar fairy tale characters becoming friends and changing their lives in funny, modern, girl-power ways, led by the appealing Princess Antonia, who breaks free but also learns to appreciate what she has at home. It's princess-y enough to appeal to fans of pretty dresses and fancy settings, yet packs a fresh, positive message or two.

Did we miss something on diversity?

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
