Synopsis

In a rose-covered palace by the sea live three lovely princesses who never sit around doing nothing. Libby is a master builder, Mellie is a master gardener, and Allie is a master baker. The day before 100 children visit for the Summer Party, Mellie tells Libby and Allie that she would like to try something other than gardening. Since all three are quite sure princesses can do anything, they decide to switch roles for a day. But things don't turn out exactly as planned. Critically acclaimed author Kate Lum's tales have been named a Junior Library Guild Selection and a Nick Jr. Family Magazine Best Book of the Year. This popular series takes an irreverent look at princesses who don't fit perfectly into the pages of classic storybooks. Narrator Barbara Caruso's whimsical performance conveys the individual charms of all three imperfect young ladies.
