For little naughty princesses and princes

The Tale of Sigismunda and Krpimir is written by Sanja Lovrenčić, translated in English as a joint effort of the author and Peter Carrier, and illustrated by Pika Vončina.

This tale is about princess Sigi, the baker’s apprentice Krpi and the two rival kings, Muk and Mrachak. The last two try to win Sigi's hand in marriage and are eager to make war to show who's best. But violence is not the way to make a princess like you, and it can be expensive too, especially if you use elite water dragons. After all, princess Sigi really only likes Krpimir.

This is another book selected for the White Raven list  for 2004 and won a prize as a theater play.
