Princess Justina Albertina: A Cautionary Tale

32 pp. | Charlesbridge | February, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-1-57091-652-6 $15.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Michael Chesworth. When hideously bratty Princess Justina Albertina demands a pet, her unfortunate nanny must go to the ends of the earth to find the perfect one. Though the writing lacks subtlety and the ending is mean-spirited, the watercolor, colored-pencil, and gouache illustrations tell a more entertaining story, as the nanny gains personal enrichment as a result of her journeys.
Reviewer: Elissa Gershowitz
