Illustrated by
Yoko Tanaka.
Feeling bored, Romy wishes she could visit the fantastical Princessland. She joins her pet, "the Lady Cat," on a conversational stroll around their diverse neighborhood; the pair imagines what happens in Princessland (e.g., everyone lives in castles with "tall towers") before ultimately discovering the everyday magic right outside their door. Warm, detailed illustrations add to this pleasant story of imagination and appreciating what's around you.
