Hale Team Pens Charming Adventure Starring a Prim and Proper Princess—With a (Not So) Dark Side
8:10 AM
(Image from Barnes & Noble)

As you can probably tell, The Princess in Black—a new middle grade adventure from Shannon and Dean Hale (illustrated by LeUyen Pham)—oozes charm. It's light, it's fun, it's empowering, it's delightful. Seriously, what's not to love? I dare you not to smile through the whole book. It's impossible, I tell you. My 6-year-old daughter and I highly recommend this adorable tale from a husband-and-wife team who know how to spin a story just right.
(Readalikes: Hm, I can't think of anything. Can you?)
Grade:
If this were a movie, it would be rated:
To the FTC, with love: I received a finished copy of The Princess in Black from the generous folks at Candlewick Press. Thank you!
