Illustrated by
Sue Hellard.
Three bored princesses trade places with their servants for a day and use what they learn to improve the lot of the castle staff. This silly, exaggerated, and fanciful look at class disparity focuses on the spunk of the heroines as they attack a list of chores that includes sheep shearing, making cheese, and dusting the castle. The lively illustrations contain plenty of humor.
