The Story Behind the Story: The Paper Bag Princess by Robet Munsch and Michael Martchenko

From chapters.ca:
Celebrate 25 years of The Paper Bag Princess with an exclusive look behind the scenes. In the fall of 1980, Annick Press first published Robert Munsch's tale of a dragon, a princess named Elizabeth, and the bum of a prince she rescues. Playfully illustrated by Michael Martchenko, and full of Munsch's now- famous wit, the book was an instant success and has since sold millions of copies in dozens of languages all over the world. To celebrate the 25th birthday of this modern classic, Annick presents the familiar story of The Paper Bag Princess in all its exuberance, along with more than 30 pages of never- before published behind- the- scenes features - all in a new bigger format.
