Description

"This nameless princess is a fabulously different kind of hero. I rooted for her triumph with every page turn." -Deborah Halverson, award-winning author, editor


It's like The King's Speech, but for kids.


When it's save-the-kingdom time, a nameless princess has to use her whole toolbox. . .


Can she finally use the one tool that's never worked. . .her quiet voice?


Organizing a party is hard! When you're a behind-the-scenes inventor princess, it's even worse.


But when your royal parents fall ill with croquet fever? All they want to do is play croquet!


The pressure's on!


Then your royal aunt burns down the castle. . .


And your fairy godmother's booby-trapped gift means. . .


No one hears you at all!


What's a princess to do?

REVIEWS


“Kids will love every quirky thing about it!”


--Kristi Wientge, author, KARMA KHULLAR’S MUSTACHE


“I love the premise of hiding in plain sight. The concept that a kid could go through childhood - and life - without feeling they are being heard or seen is such an important topic . . . I know a lot of kids will be drawn to this!”


--Halli Gomez, contributing author, BRAVE NEW GIRLS: TALES OF HEROINES WHO HACK


“I love all the rich details like the Blackflies, the goldfish in the moat, the sluices carrying the desserts . . .” --Karin Lefranc, author, I WANT TO EAT YOUR BOOKS


PRAISE FOR THE SERIES


Book 2: Lost With Leeks


"delightful funny book that captures the readers heart from start to finish. A wicked Queen, hot air balloons, a friendly yellow dragon and a Prince with a lot of responsibility and a huge talent for getting lost make for a hilarious journey. . . will definitely be sharing it with my grandchildren."-Sharon Walker, grandparent


Book 2.5: Trouble at the Valentine Factory


"Gr 4-7–Decher’s fourth book in the “Seven Kingdoms” series is a zany story of ingenuity and collaboration. Life in the Seven Kingdoms is never dull, especially not with fairies popping by to ask for favors and a cranky queen creating candies that will put a spell on anyone who eats them." --Jen McConnel, SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL


Book 3: Under Pressure With A Squash


"Whimsy and adventure at every turn! . . . another wonderful read. Funny, delightful and whimsical story of two royal siblings who learn what leadership requires."


—Eileen Schnabel, author, ONE IF BY LAND, TWO IF BY SUBMARINE


Book 4: Rule Trouble: The Case of the Illegal Dragon
