Such a Prince

(4) K-3 Illustrated by John Manders. This story includes a sassy fairy (the story's narrator), three brothers, a princess in distress, and a shifty king who gets his comeuppance. The text tries too hard to be funny ("As fairies go, I'm not the flashy kind. Glass slippers and pumpkin carriages are just not my style"). Zany cartoon illustrations match the tone.
