Hello, I’m Charlotte!
Charlotte is a real princess, with a magnificent palace, royal clothes and a schedule planned from breakfast until bedtime. She has everything a princess could want—except the freedom to choose what she does.
When Charlotte finally escapes beyond the palace walls, she meets the Chocolate Witch and discovers a world much bigger than her own. Now she must decide whether being free means running away from her responsibilities—or finding the courage to change them.

This is my family:
Tina - The Chocolate Witch
Tina, the Chocolate Witch, lives deep in the forest inside a cottage made from chocolate, sweets and enough marshmallows to survive a very long winter. She creates magical treats, travels wherever the wind takes her and has never followed a timetable in her life.
When Charlotte arrives at her door, Tina recognises another lonely girl beneath the crown. She becomes Charlotte’s first true friend and teaches her that freedom is precious—but it means far more when it is used to help someone else.
Susan the Corgi
Susan is Charlotte’s short-legged, strong-minded royal corgi and her most loyal companion. She is supposed to behave like a dignified palace dog, but she prefers muddy paths, stolen sandwiches and squeezing through gaps no princess could manage.
The King and Queen
Charlotte’s parents rule the kingdom from their grand pink palace. They love their daughter fiercely, but their attempts to protect her have filled her life with guards, lessons, appearances and very little freedom.
The King worries about everything that could go wrong, while the Queen believes every problem can be solved with better planning and a more suitable outfit.
The Chocolate Witch
Princess Charlotte lives in a beautiful palace, but every part of her life is controlled. She longs to escape the royal duties, watching crowds and endless rules that come with being next in line to the throne.
When Charlotte runs away, she meets the free-spirited Chocolate Witch and discovers a struggling village that desperately needs help. Charlotte must choose between continuing her adventure or returning home to become the kind of princess her people truly need.
