Teeny-weeny Queenie Award-winning author by Claire Freedman (author) and Ali Pye (illustrator)

Queenie has one BIG ambition. When she grows up she is going to be Queen. Because growing up can take “forever” she is already practising doing queenly things. One day, Queenie summons her Dear Loyal Subjects to a royal tea party. Queenie reluctantly invites her shy little sister, Ella, but during the party forgets to include her in the games. Suddenly, Queenie doesn’t feel so queenly, she feels horrible and mean.

In this laugh-out-loud, feel-good tale, Queenie discovers that if there is one thing more important than being a good queen, it is being a great sister!
