I Want a Party!: A Little Princess Story (Andersen Press Picture Books)
The Little Princess, last seen in I Want to Do It Myself! (2011), has another thing she desperately desires: a party! As usual, her royal court is happy to assist, creating hats, food, games, and invites. But the invites never go out, and on the big day nobody comes. Except for the princess’ best friend, who just happens to come by—so the princess turns the party into one honoring her friend. Ross’ scrawly lines and endearingly sloppy watercolors make this another easy-to-read, easy-to-love entry into the continuing adventures of this rascally royal. Preschool-Grade 2. --Daniel Kraus
