Bella Beetroot - Martin Auer

A fabulous modern fable, this is a powerful princess tale with a twist! When Bella Beetroot is asked to do anything she doesn't want to, she holds her breath and goes until she goes bright red in the face - as red as a beetroot! And then one day, right in the middle of a tantrum, a mighty eagle comes and swoops her away, on an incredible adventure. She defeats dragons, doesn't marry a prince (no, thank you!), and is still home in time for tea...
