A present to unwrap? Lift the flap!

Long ago and far away,
In a draughty, lonesome castle,
Princess Patricia stamped and cried,
‘I must play pass the parcel!’

Join in all the party fun.
There are presents to unwrap.
Will the Princess get her birthday wish?
To find out, lift the flap!

Synopsis:

A fun-packed, rhyming lift-the-flap book featuring favourite fairy tale characters It's Princess Patricia's birthday and her fairy godmother has conjured up a parcel so she can play her favourite party game. But where are the guests? Lift the first parcel flap and there they are -- Little Red Riding Hood, Giant Rumblebunn, Puss in Boots and Goldilocks! There's just one problem: as each flap is lifted and a new layer of the parcel removed, it soon becomes clear that the players are opening one another's gifts! And -- even worse -- the Princess hasn't had a present at all! But there is still one tiny parcel left. The Princess wants a puppy, but the fairy godmother's spells have got even more out of control -- the princess unwraps a frog and gets turned into a frog princess.
