The Most Miserable, Awful Day of the Year Julia Rae Wilson

Princess Mary Beth is having the most miserable, awful day she's had this year. Everything goes wrong, right from the start. The princess takes her anger and frustration out on the prince, yelling at him and blaming him for the disasters. At the end of the day, however, she is sorry; she apologizes to the prince, who kindly forgives her. Two days later, the princess and her family visit the village for ice cream where she talks with seven-year-old Shirley, a young princess who tells Mary Beth about how important it is to forgive people-even if they aren't nice. And, so, the older princess learns a valuable lesson about forgiveness. This picture book for children follows Mary Beth through a myriad of comical disasters as she ultimately discovers true joy through tender forgiveness.
