This is a great response to the princess fixation our culture has lately, a d explains in an age-appropriate way the difference between doing and being. I do wish she hadn’t said “even a scientist,” though. It makes wanting to become a scientist still seem out of reach for our daughters, at least to my ears. Sorry to nitpick an otherwise positive message.
I noticed that too. Otherwise a great piece. I played it to my daughters and I think my princess loving 5 year old got it. She was also chuffed because both her parents are lawyers.

Good point, Hope.
That’s exactly what I thought when I heard “even a scientist”.
