From the publisher

When seven little bandits suddenly have to share their dad’s time with a Princess and her six little princes and princesses–it’s a royal mess. “When are they leaving?” “Oh, they’re staying, my dear,” said their dad. And stay they did. But when the little bandits devise a plan to make them leave, they soon discover that it’s royally boring without them… It’s patchwork times three in Ute Krause’s new delightful offering–for when their mom meets a dragon…the bandits and the royals alike are never the same again (and they couldn’t be happier for it!) - Ute Krause, author of Oscar and the Very Hungry Dragon and Nick and the Nasty Knight returns with this loving tale of a patchwork family. - Oscar and the Very Hungry Dragon was chosen as a Scholastic Book Fair title, and a Florida Reading Association title. - Krause has won praise for both her lively artwork and her humorous stories.
