Princess Pip
’
s Holiday
1 Ready to go
Everyone in Princess Pip
’
s castle was very busy. The King was polishing
his money, the Queen was choosing sun hats, and all the maids were running
around with piles of vests.
‘
Can I take Dobbin on holiday?
’
asked Princess Pip.
‘
I
’
m afraid there won
’
t be room for a pony on the coach,
’
said the
Queen.
‘
Oh,
’
said Princess Pip.
‘
Can Amanda and Bert come, then?
’
‘
There
’
s no room for snakes,
’
said the King,
‘
not even pet ones.
’
Princess Pip scowled.
‘
This holiday is going to be BORING,
’
she said.
They went on holiday in their best gold coach.
‘
Wave to all the people, dear,
’
said the Queen.
Princess Pip folded her arms.
‘
I
’
m on holiday,
’
she said.
‘
Are we nearly
there yet?
’
‘
We won
’
t be there for a long time,
’
said the Queen firmly.
It
did
take a long time to get to the seaside. The coach got very hot, and
Princess Pip didn
’
t feel very well.
‘
Here we are, at last!
’
said the King happily.
‘
But it
’
s a castle!
’
said Princess Pip.
‘
Just like home. It
’
s BORING!
’
word.
2 Just like home
There was a girl waiting by the castle door.
‘
This is Daisy,
’
said the Queen.
‘
She
’
s going to look after you, Pip.
’
Daisy showed Princess Pip her room.
‘
I
don’t
want a four-poster bed!
’
said Princess Pip.
‘
That
’
s just like
home!
’
‘
You can sleep on my straw mattress, then,
’
said Daisy.
‘
I
’
ll have the
bed.
’
‘
Oh, all right,
’
said Princess Pip.
That evening there was a banquet and it went on for hours.
‘
More sprouts?
’
asked the King happily.
‘
This is BORING,
’
said Princess Pip.
‘
Nonsense, dear,
’
said the Queen.
‘
It can
’
t be boring. We
’
re on holiday!
’
‘
I WANT TO GO HOME!
’
said Princess Pip, the next day. She had been
walking round the castle walls all morning and she hadn
’
t found anything to
do.
‘
But we
’
re having a wonderful time,
’
said the Queen, from her sun
chair.
‘
Just look at the way my money shines in the sun,
’
said the King.
‘
Wonderful!
’
‘
But it
’
s BORING!
’
said Princess Pip.
word.
‘
Why
don’
t you go and talk to Daisy?
’
suggested the Queen.
Princess Pip stomped off.
‘
That does it,
’
she said to Daisy.
‘
I WANT TO GO HOME!
’
3 The road home
‘
If you stayed here a bit longer, you might start liking the seaside,
’
said Daisy.
But Princess Pip wasn
’
t listening. She was putting all her important
things in her suitcase.
‘
I think we
’
ll have to take some things out,
’
said Daisy.
Daisy found them both backpacks, and they set out for home.
Princess Pip and Daisy went across the drawbridge and along the
road.
It was very hot.
‘
Let
’
s have a nice, cool snack,
’
said Daisy.
So they got some fish sticks from a stall.
‘
These aren
’
t bad,
’
admitted Princess Pip.
‘
They taste best by the seaside,
’
said Daisy.
‘
I
’
ll show you where the
fish come from, if you like.
’
They went down some stone steps to a place where the sea swished
backwards and forwards and the ground looked as if it was made of gold.
‘
Look in these pools,
’
said Daisy.
