(CBS) "Mr. Men" author and illustrator Adam Hargreaves has created a new character to help mark the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton.
"Little Miss Princess," who is "kind and generous" and "lives in a castle with turrets and a moat," will be the star of the latest edition of the popular children's book series, Egmont publishers announced.

The book, to be published on March 7, will chronicle how the royal "decides to help her fellow Little Miss and Mr. Men friends with their chores."
It will be followed with a second title, "Little Miss Princess and the Very Special Wedding," due April 9, and will follow her attempts to get to the ceremony on time.
Hargreaves, whose father Roger Hargreaves created the "Mr. Men" and "Little Miss" series, told the UK's Press Association that he "thoroughly enjoyed" writing the books.
"She's an inspirational and fun character that girls of all ages will connect with," he said.
