    Peggy Orenstein clearly states and argues throughout her article that the "princess craze" is a world-wide phenomenon and is damaging young girls. The damage Orenstein is referring to is depression caused by girls feeling that they must fulfill the princess image, and when they do not, it makes them feel as if they are not good enough the way they are. Orenstein also goes as far to say that women who are "perpetually nice" are more likely to be depressed and less likely to use contraception. (673)…

    The idea of being a princess is a dream in most young girl’s lives. They are not looking at the physical shape but at the clothing, the crown, the jewelry and the feeling that they have when they are all dressed up. The clothing that are being sold to children, was not originally designed for young children to play dress up, they were Halloween costumes. The best ways to offset the need to play make believe is to reinforce their own self-esteem. That is to let them know that they are strong and beautiful in their own special way. For example, my uncle has always called his daughter princess from the time she was born. This is a name that has resonated within her and she believes that she is a princess, not because she looks like the doll in the store but because her daddy said she was a princess. She had her princess signs on her bedroom wall and her mom had purchased her a princess bedding set for her bed. To most people’s surprise, she does not like pink, and the bedding was soon removed as she got older. But when her…

    The issue of whether the luxuries and conveniences prevent people from developing into truly strong and independent, as the speaker claims, is such a complex one that in response to this statement, people have various answers due to their respective point of view, so we should evaluate the proposition comprehensively and systematically. To a certain extent, I agree insofar as conveniences of contemporary life may affect our self-development and independency. However, another convincing argument can be made further that modern facilities contribute to our conveniences in life. In my view, what really matters/counts is individual's attitude towards contemporary facilities, and the final judgment should depend on a case-by-case analysis which needs an all-sided consideration.…

Throughout the book the author uses symbolism to get his messages across to the adult reader. With or without the embedded symbolism, this short novel is still a fascinating read for the young and the young at heart.…
