Starring Moana, Cinderella, Mulan, Jasmine, Merida, Tiana, Rapunzel, Aurora, and more, this deluxe hardcover picture book takes young readers around the world and back to experience the true historical times that inspired the Disney Princesses' worlds—featuring illustrations and photographs!

What was it like to live in a village like Belle's from Beauty and the Beast in France during the 1700s? Or a household in China like Mulan's over a thousand years ago? What kinds of gadgets and gizmos would Ariel from The Little Mermaid have found if she had lived in the Mediterranean Sea? Did people really wear glass slippers to the ball like Cinderella?

This book features all the Disney Princesses—including Moana, Snow White, Pocahontas, Jasmine from Aladdin, Merida from Brave, Tiana from The Princess and the Frog, Tangled's Rapunzel, Sleeping Beauty's Aurora, and more—with information about the historical settings that their films were inspired by!

Disney Princess fans ages 6 to 9 can learn about the traditions, the technology of the times, and the legends surrounding each princess with this combination of full-color illustrations and historical photos.

The Disney Princess franchise dreams, creates, and celebrates the most magical adventures, each woven around a relatable, empowered heroine who delights and inspires kids to realize their full potential.
