4-6Allie Finkle's Rules for Girls series.
In her fourth story, Allie's fourth-grade class is performing the play Princess Penelope in the Realm of Recycling. Allie wants to be the princess--but so do friend Sophie and enemy Cheyenne. Allie doesn't win the role, but she gets by with her characteristic wit and, of course, her rules. Her unique perspective will keep upper-elementary readers (and possibly their parents) chuckling.
