I first read these books as a teenager, discovering them in my school library. Patricia C Wrede became a favorite author of mine, and these sweet, relatively short stories particularly stuck in my mind, so I'm re-reading them at age 31 and happy to find they're still delightful. I think my favorite is book 3 of this series, but the whole thing is splendid.
I would recommend The Enchanted Forest Chronicles to anyone interested in dragons or in unconventional, clever princesses.

Princess Cimorene, who is frustrated with life as a "proper" princess, runs away to become Dragon Kazul's princess. As a dragon's princess, she cooks and she organizes Kazul's library and treasure hoard. Cimorene loves this life even though she faces some nuisances (knights and princes) and challenges (wizards). But Cimorene rises to each challenge using her intelligence, bravery, wit, and logic.
A wonderful feminist fantasy. A great option for a family read-aloud.

I've read this (series) multiple times. The first time was when I was a kid. I revisit this book in particular when I need something funny and relaxed to read. Cimorene is a wonderful & strong character.

I certainly enjoyed this book - short, playful, and smart. I'll put it in the list of books and series to read to the kiddos in the future
