My all time favorite children's book will forever and always be,

"The Paperbag Princess"

It was about a princess who's prince was kidnapped by a dragon and all of her clothes were burnt in a fire, so she had to wear a paper bag and she goes to rescue the prince, and instead of using brawn, she uses her brain to trick the dragon into falling asleep and she goes and rescues the prince, but when he sees her, she says, "I will not marry you. You're dirty and you're wearing a paper bag! Come back when you look like a real princess."

And she was like, "You know what? I wouldn't marry you if my life depended on it." And she leaves him.
