PreS-Gr 1—In a burst of independence, Little Princess decides to take a camping trip alone. Everyone in the castle rushes to help her get ready, but she wants to do it alone. Putting more energy into the declaration than the preparation, she manages to arrive at her campsite completely ill-equipped. She has forgotten everything from her tent to her toothbrush. Fortunately she gets a great deal of behind-the-scenes help and returns to the castle no wiser, believing she really did do everything herself. The charming pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations and clever play between words and pictures help set the tone to keep the story fun. Fans of the series will be pleased to have another installment.—Julie Roach, Cambridge Public Library, MA
