A hilarious rhyming story for princesses who are definitely NOT princessy.

When a truly terrifying sound wakes everyone up, clever Princess Daisy soon figures out the problem, but her father, the King, just won't listen - how can a princess defeat a dragon? Then when the knights who come to the rescue prove to be a big bunch of nincompoop scaredy-cats, things start to look rather bad. Until . . . hang on . . . who's that mystery knight in the dragon's den? Why, it's Plucky Princess Daisy . . . OF COURSE!

A feminist bedtime picture book that's just perfect for princesses and princes who don't need rescuing.

Steven Lenton is the illustrator of the hugely successful Shifty McGifty series by Tracey Corderoy, and also illustrates books by David Baddiel, Frank Cottrell-Boyce and Peter Bently.
