The Real, True Dulcie Campbell

(3) K-3 Illustrated by R. W. Alley. A spunky girl living on an Iowa farm decides that there's been a mistake: "Someone . . . must have taken her from her satin-lined, jewel-encrusted royal crib and placed her in the quite ordinary crib of another, quite ordinary baby." She curls up with her beloved fairy-tale book and learns that a princess's life isn't all glamour and fun. Beguiling humor and comical illustrations make this an appealing read-aloud choice.
