Synopsis

Princess Flo has pocket money to spend, so she's off to Fluffley's Fine Toys, the best toy shop in town. There are cuddly teddies, cute kittens and perky penguins - all perfect for a royal princess! But to everyone's horror, Princess Flo spots a strange looking toy. It's part hippo, part panda and part mouse . . . and a total and utter mistake!

But luckily for all, this polite little princess sees something unique and special - the perfect toy. All he needs now is a name!

An incredibly funny debut from the winner of the Macmillan Prize for Illustration 2013. A brilliant, big-hearted story with an important message; our imperfections make us perfect.

The ideal gift and a smart choice for little princesses everywhere!
