It's Princess Arabella's birthday. She wants a very special present. Ruby-encrusted roller skates, a golden bicycle, a cuddly mouse, a tea set, or a doll's carriage? No, Princess Arabella wants something different for her birthday: an elephant. But will she get what she wants? A delightful story about birthdays and princesses.
The Princess Arabella stories will form part of a series to be published by Cassava Republic in 2017 - 2018.
