A funny, feminist twist on the Cinderella fairy tale for fans of fractured fairy tales
Princess Harriet Hamsterbone is not the kind of princess who enjoys fancy dresses or extravagant parties. Cliff-diving, fractions, and whacking people with swords are more her thing. So when she's forced to attend a boring ball in honor of a visiting ambassador, Harriet is less than thrilled--until a bewitchingly beautiful stranger arrives. Who is she? And where did she come from? The mystery leads to a not-so-wicked stepsister, an incontinent lizard, and a fairy's spell that's really more of a curse. Luckily, Harriet knows a thing or two about curses...

Smart, funny, and filled with swashbuckling adventure, book five in the critically acclaimed Hamster Princess series is a hilariously re-told fairy tale for the modern age.
 
 

 

I cannot get enough of Harriet Hamsterbone! I think this series is so much fun! Our headstrong, feminist rodent is up to her usual antics! This time she needs to finds the mysterious princess who has left the ball at the stroke of midnight to help free her from her curse! Complete with hilarious high jinks, and tomfoolery, Harriet saves the day, the princess and her hide from her parents who are not always happy with her silliness. Verdict: get this one for your upper elementary and 6th grade set!
