Princesses Are Not Perfect

Industrious princesses Libby, Allie, and Mellie return for another go-round in their florid seaside palace in this companion to Princesses Are Not Quitters! This time, Princess Mellie announces she's tired of always working in the garden, so the princesses switch it up: Allie will build things, Mellie will bake, and Libby will garden. But even though “Princesses are good at everything,” they realize it might be best to stick with what they love. Their DIY attitudes leave prissier princess stories in the dust; an excess of tremendously ruffled gowns, dramatic hairdos, and other princessy accoutrements ensure capricious flair. Ages 5–8. (Mar.)
