I loved that book! Have you ever read the short story "Petronella" by Jay Williams? It's most recently been in print in the Oxford Book of Modern Fairy Tales, edited by Alison Lurie. It does some similar undercutting; the story starts when Petronella goes on a quest just like her two older brothers, because being a princess shouldn't stop her from going on a quest.
