But it takes little Violet, aged 5, to work out what the problem is. Maybe Colin is nervous about his important new job as the King's dog. Actually, everyone else admits they're nervous too - especially the King, who has the biggest job of all. Can Violet help get Colin and the crown back to the King in time for the coronation? A fun royal caper covering themes of anxiety, empathy and community in a light-touch and warm-hearted way - with a non-fiction page about coronations at the end of the book.
