Princess Baby
Poor baby, no one calls her by her real name! “I am not a buttercup, or a giggly goose. I am not a cupcake Please don’t call me Little Lamb, and never ever Gum Drop,” she insists With a curtsy and a twirl, again and again our protagonist makes it abundantly clear who she is. She wears a shiny crown, a fancy dress, sparkly shoes, a velvet cape, and glittery jewels. There are more clues too–she dances with princes, has perfect manners, and makes sure that everyone in her kingdom is happy. Her persistence pays off in the end, and even the youngest readers will be cheering, “Princess Baby!”.
