Princess Violet is the sole heir to the throne and the self-proclaimed "Children's Princess," focusing her duties on the kingdom's children. When a chance encounter with the local bully brings the two girls together, Violet decides to make a project of Susie, teaching her things about life that the younger girl didn't even know existed.

Told in the classic style that has endeared children of countless generations, this Cinderella-style story of friendship and sisterhood will delight girls of any age.
