What is Long live Princess Smartypants about?

Princess Smartypants wants a baby, but definitely not a husband. When a muddled telephone call and a mixed-up shopping list bring her a baby with super-human strength, life at the palace becomes rather chaotic. Then wicked Prince Rottenghut kidnaps the little one to settle an old score. Princess Smartypants sets off on a daring rescue mission, facing danger, mayhem and a very powerful baby along the way. Can she outwit the prince and bring her baby safely home?
