Buy it: Princess Peepers Picks a Pet

Princess Peepers Picks a Pet (By Pam Calvert) – Princess Peepers isn’t like the other princesses at the Royal Academy. She hangs from trees while the other girls work on their posture. And she ruins their tea party when she accidentally crashes her skateboard into the table. And when the teacher announces there will be a pet show, Princess Peepers finds out she’s the only one who doesn’t have a pet. But when Princess Peepers is out walking in the forest, she bumps into what she thinks is the perfect pet. Unfortunately, the bump knocked her glasses off, so what she thinks is a flying unicorn, is really a fire-breathing dragon. Peepers flies into the pet show on her new pet only to be told it’s a dragon. And when Peepers puts her glasses on and sees her pet for the first time, she thinks he’s perfect anyway. A cute story about being yourself.
