Book summary
Princess Bee longs to be let out of the palace on her own, just for a
day. Dressed up as an ordinary person! But the king and queen would
NEVER allow such a thing. Her dream seems impossible until, one
magical Monday, she gets the chance to escape at last. It's her very
first day off from being a princess and what a surprising day it turns
out to be......
Nayu's thoughts
Any book with a princes in that crosses my path is almost always one I'll read for review: princesses are just plain fun! I had to smile at how much Princess Bee wanted to be a rebel - even princesses need to feel normal. I wondered how she would get her dream come true, and every aspect was a fun surprise: you'll never guess how she gets out and in the palace, not when it seems that the universe is conspiring against her.
What I can say is that it is through the friendships that Bee makes, plus lot of luck that make her out of the palace tour a fun one. She is able to right some wrongs, and understands more about her kingdom which without doubt will make her a great queen one day. There are both laughs and thrills to be found in her tale, which is the first in this age category for Anne, and I hope she writes many more because I loved it!
Suggested read
Check out Anne's other books which I've enjoyed since I was little, including Jug Valley Adventures #1 Boys V. Girls by Anne Digby (Children's, 9 years +, 10E/10E)
For more princess mayhem try series which I've read a few audiobooks of but not read them, The Pony Mad Princess by Diana Kimpton and Lizzie Finlay (Children's, 5 years +, 9/10E)
