"When it comes to contemporary classics, Shannon Hale has the makings of someone whose books will be read and reread for decades to come." -The 2006 Newbery Committee (The Association for Library Service to Children, a division of the American Library Association)"Princess Academy is the strong, well-written story of one girl's determination to show that even a small mountain flower can be as valuable as a gold crown." -Teenreads.com "An unalloyed joy." -Kirkus Reviews "This is not a fluffy, predictable fairy tale... Instead, Hale weaves an intricate, multilayered story about families, relationships, education, and the place we call home." -School Library Journal |
