At the christening party of Her Royal Highness the Princess Amethyst Alexandra Augusta Araminta Adelaide Aurelia Anne all of her seven godfathers & 17 godmothers arrived with fabulous presents - except the last fairy godmother.
Spiritual Content
Aside from the mention of cathedrals and archbishops, The Ordinary Princess has no spiritual content.
As far as magic goes, all we see are the gifts bestowed upon Princess Amy by the fairies.
Violence
Desperate to marry off his youngest — and only unmarried —daughter, King Hulderbrand and his councilors (okay, mainly the Lord High Chamberlain) hatch a scheme that involves locking Princess Amy in a tower and hiring a dragon to “lay waste the countryside” in the hopes that an honor-bound prince will slay the dragon and marry The Ordinary Princess, even if she is anything but regal. This plan is never put into action.
Drug And Alcohol Content
Princess Amy sees empty wine glasses on the table after a banquet, but that’s all as far as alcohol and drugs go.
Sexual Content
There’s one non-descriptive kiss between Perry and Princess Amy.
Swearing Or Foul Language
Not present.
