She wants to dance. She is a kangaroo. She just went to a ballet. She played a part because two of the real ones had had some things that hurt them. Small injuries. She did well. At the end a woman gives Josephine roses.
Cinderhazel: The Cinderella of Halloween by Deborah Nourse Lattimore
There was a witch who married a prince who was a filthy witch prince. His name was Filthy, actually. Well, I don't really know how to exlpain it except it was the opposite of clean, the opposite of real Cinderella. Her stepsisters were witches, and so was she. I liked it very much.
Princess Grace by Mary Hoffman
She isn't really a princess, but she was in a princess parade, and she wanted to be a pretty pink princess but she changed it to a West African Kente princess. Because of books, magazines, and her teacher. She liked it better. I would have had Grace stay pink. Why? I don't know how to describe that one. One reason is the crown is not that pretty and the other is that she doesn't have a full sleeve.
