 Amazon.ca: Princess Prunella and the Purple Peanut: Books: Maryann Kovalski,Margaret Atwood   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Preoccupied with her own prettiness, Prunella, a positive pill of a princess, passes her time peering into a pocket mirror to see her perfect dimples; planning nuptials with a prince who has piles of pin money; and producing pandemonium for her pained parents, pets and the parlormaids paid to pick up after her.
It's also a particularly pleasing read-aloud, as Atwood's outrageous alliteration ("for supper she fed Prunella some parsley and paprika soup, a pile of potted pigeon and pickerel pancakes, and some pepper and porridge preserve, on a pretty plate patterned with pendulous poppies") proves irresistible.
Princess Prunella not only is a beautiful story, but the way the author plays with words and adjectives is fantastic.
