Written & illustrated by M. M. Kaye
A princess gifted with ordinariness seeks adventure and finds an unexpected prince.
Princess Amy, unlike her glamorous sisters, is blessed with ordinariness. Preferring adventure over royal duties, she escapes her arranged marriage to become a kitchen maid. In her new life, she encounters a prince as unremarkable yet extraordinary as herself. Will their shared simplicity lead to an unexpected fairy tale ending? Discover the charm of being ordinary in a world that values the extraordinary.
Along with Wit, Charm, Health, and Courage, Princess Amy of Phantasmorania receives a special fairy christening gift: Ordinariness. Unlike her six beautiful sisters, she has brown hair and freckles, and would rather have adventures than play the harp, embroider tapestries . . . or become a Queen. When her royal parents try to marry her off, Amy runs away and, because she’s so ordinary, easily becomes the fourteenth assistant kitchen maid at a neighboring palace. And there . . . much to everyone’s surprise . . . she meets a prince just as ordinary (and special) as she is! “This delightful fairy tale is sure to please young romantics . . . Neither Kaye’s princess nor her book should be considered ordinary.” (School Library Journal)
