#9: Ursula Vernon, Harriet the Invincible (Hamster Princess #1)

Still having trouble finding time for any meatier fiction this year, but I enjoyed this fluffy (furry?) fairy tale, a feminist retelling of the Sleeping Beauty story where the people are rodents, the ogres are cats, and the horses are quails. It's at the same reading level as Vernon's Dragonbreath series, with a similar mix of text and illustrated dialogue. Looks like this one is going to be a series as well: there is already a sequel that takes on the story of the Twelve Dancing Princesses.
