The Little Princess has been moved to a new castle, where there is lots more room! But she just wants to go home to the old castle. Is the old castle still the same, now that it has new owners? This wonderfully funny and reassuring book will ring true with any family who has ever moved into a new house.
The Little Princess loves to win—and at home everyone usually lets her. At school, even though she tries her hardest, it seems she can't do anything right. But she soon discovers that winning is much more fun when she really deserves it!
The Little Princess is going camping. Everyone offers to help, but she doesn't want any help. "I want to do it myself!" she insists. So she sets off all on her own to find the perfect camp site. When she finds the right spot, she discovers she's forgotten a few important things. Maybe she needs a little help after all.
The Little Princess doesn't want to go to the hospital, and she does everything she can to avoid it. But when she is finally forced to go, she finds that she really rather likes it. Why? Because they treat her like a princess there!
