The Princess & the Pauper

by Kate Brian

The Princess & the Pauper Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Shabby...chic?

Carina, a real European princess, is dying to hook up with the sexy American rock star she met online. Too bad about all those bodyguards watching her every move. Then Carina spots her down-and-out near-twin, Julia. For a fast ten grand, Julia grabs the gown and the crown, and the girls swap identities for a day.

Before long Princess Carina is trapped on a skeevy bus full of roadies, and Pauper Julia is jetting off to...some small foreign country?

Only a storybook ending can get these two posers back to where they belong.

Review:

"Alternately narrated by two completely opposite teens — a princess and a down-to-earth student — this story is told in 'breezy, Princess Diaries — style lingo,' according to PW. Ages 10-14. (May) A starred review indicates a book of outstanding quality. A review with a blue-tinted title indicates a book of unusual commercial interest that hasn't received a starred review." Publishers Weekly (Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information, Inc.)
