Today isn't a plain school-clothes day, Lottie decides. It's a Princess Dress day. The picture book was published originally in Germany. A determined Lottie puts on her gold princess dress, brushes her teeth and polishes her crown. But something is wrong.
Mom looks, well, boring.
Mom that if today is a Princess Dress day, it is also a Queen Mom day. Mom, with reluctance, puts on her red and gold party dress and a crown. Dorrie's delightful grin-inducing book reminds us that unconventional daughters and flexible moms can make every day special. Matching crowns help. Lottie's story is only one of a wheelbarrow full of delightful new children's books that can help ease the angst of bidding another speedy summer goodbye.
