Hello Readers,
Hello readers Stokes the mighty here to recommend a book. I got it from a book fair at my sister's school. It is called Palace of Mirrors. Here is a quote from the book: "Somewhere in the world I have a tiara in a little box. It is not safe for me to wear it .... It is not safe for me to even tall anyone who I really am. But I know-I have always known."Cecilia knows that she is not just another peasant girl; she is actually the true princess, in hiding until the evil forces that killed her parents are vanquished. A commoner named Desmia is on the throne as a decoy.As she gets older, Cecilia finds it harder to study statesmanship and palace protocol secretly at night ans then pretend that she has nothing on her mind other than scrubbing the gruel stains out of her best apron by day. Cecilia knows that it is time to take charge. Along with her best friend, Harper, she flees to the capital city, determined to reclaim her throne and face the danger head on. When Harper and Cecilia reach the famed palace of mirrors they discover complications: Princess Desmia believes an entirely different version of the story.
Margaret Peterson Haddix author of Just Ella writes an amazing story where a princess in hiding and a pretender to the throne discover that nothing is as it appears.
I really enjoyed reading this story and loved how it isn't just for girls but for boys as well.
