Even better, she's finally starting to get the hang of this princess thing. Just in time, too, since her half-sister, Princess Mia Thermopolis, is expected to give birth to twins any day now! <p/>It's pretty much the worst time possible for a school field trip, but everyone is insisting that Olivia <i>must</i> attend the Royal School Winter Games. Between Grandmère chaperoning, Olivia's snobby cousin Luisa complaining about her relationship woes, and everyone insisting that Olivia has a crush on Prince Khalil (even though she isn't sure that he even wants to be friends anymore!), things are quickly turning into a royal mess! <p/>This is fun, illustrated middle grade--and this is the first series illustrated by Meg Cabot herself! The paperback features an interview with Meg Cabot and an excerpt of the next book. <p/><b>Praise for the From the Notebooks of a Middle School Princess series: </b> <p/>"Author Meg Cabot is ready to put her tiara back on [with] a new character." --<i>USA Today </i>on<i> From the Notebooks of a Middle School Princess</i> <p/>"The nation of Genovia gains a new resident in this amusing spin-off. . . .
