Princesses Should Not Have Dirty Feet.

I digress a little today. This is for Miss Isabella, my only granddaughter.

Princesses Should Not Have Dirty Feet
by: Kim York

Isabella was a princess. She lived in a castle with the king and the queen, two brothers, and her grandmother. Princess Isabella loved to go barefoot and her grandmother was always saying to her, “Isabella, princesses should not have dirty feet.” One day Isabella went to the courtyard in her bare feet and a ball gown. She saw one frog, two butterflies, and three lizards. She chased the frog and he hopped away. She watched the butterflies land on the roses and tore her ball gown on a thorn. She climbed the fence to catch the lizards, put them in a jar, and took them to her grandmother. “Isabella, look at you!  Your ball gown is torn and your hair is a mess. My goodness, child, princesses should not have dirty feet!” said her grandmother. Isabella looked at her grandmother. She ran toward grandmother’s throne, hopped on her lap, and hugged her neck. “I know, Grandmother,” said Isabella, “but explorers should have dirty feet.” So each day when Princess Isabella finished exploring, she would wash her feet and put on her pink sparkly shoes. After all princesses should not have dirty feet.
