This comic cautionary tale is the perfect picture book for pampered princesses everywhere. Princess Ruby really is a horrid child.

But when the palace and gifts collapse upon the poor king, the tiny tyrant gets more than she bargained for and swiftly realises that she has overlooked the most precious thing of all . . . her father's love. Luckily for Ruby, it's never too late to make amends and show someone how much you care.
