A new sure-fire winner about the assertive, but endearing, Little Princess. The Little Princess has never been a quiet retiring character at home, so you can confidently expect her opinions and preferences to be widely known within screaming distance. Whatever will the King and Queen do with her? And just how forgiving and tolerant will the Maid, the Admiral and the Prime Minister manage to be? Not forgetting Gilbert, the most long-suffering (and gymnastic!) teddy bear in the world, nor the Palace Cats, who threatened to leave home once before.
