Princess Cupcake Jones Won’t Go to School!

Starting school as a kindergartener can be a scary experience and intimidating for little kids.  Princess Cupcake Jones is no different.  In this second installment of the series, Cupcake (her first name) doesn’t want to go to the first day of school and comes up with a full menu of excuses.  But what her mom manages to get out of her is that she is afraid no one will like her–a common fear among kids.  She goes and gives it a try and meets another girl who loves tutus as much as she does.  The story is told in rhyme and the illustrator does a nice job of incorporating various ethnicities into the story.  Kids should be able to relate well to Cupcake.  But I hope she loses the tiara in future installments.
