Princess Arabella wants nothing more than to go to school. She excitedly gets up in the morning and packs her bag with all the things she will need. As it turns out, going to Royal School is no fun. They teach the princesses how to curtsey and walk gracefully. Arabella wants to read and play and do arts and crafts. It isn't until the children get to bring their favourite animal to school that Arabella enjoys herself. A cute addition to the Princess Arabella series. The publisher generously provided me with a copy of this book via Netgalley. ( )

This is an interesting book. Princess Arabella is about to head off for her first day at school. But when she gets there it is not the school she dreamed about. She wants to read books, and do real math, not learn to curtsy and cut ribbons. ( )
