The Grump Queen

Princess Posie is mad as can be. Every day is filled with the same boring princess duties, yucky foods, and impossible-to-achieve expectations. Posie knows the hive is counting on her to become the queen one day, but what she really needs is a break! But no matter how many times she shares her feelings, no one will listen to her—not even her mom. Soon, Posie’s anger begins to brim and bubble . . . but when she finally finds a way to let her feelings out, Posie finds herself in an even stickier situation.
