With brilliant full-colour illustrations, this is a great first step after picture books or for newly independent readers, featuring a perfect princess who is actually ... an undercover hero!
Saving the world from horrible monsters day in, day out may not be your ordinary princess duties, but Princess Magnolia is always up for a challenge and is ready to switch into her superhero outfit at the first ring of her inconvenient monster alarm. This is a funny, action-packed series for young readers who like their princesses not only prim and perfect, but also dressed in black!
Shannon Hale is also the author of Ever After High books and the Kitty-Corn books.
