Notebooks of a Middle-School Princess is the first in a funny, heart-warming illustrated Princess Diaries series by Meg Cabot. Olivia Grace is completely average. Or so she thinks . . . until Her Royal Highness, Princess Mia Thermopolis turns up at her school one day and whisks Olivia away to New York City!

In a limo, no less! Where you can eat all the cookies you want and the ceiling lights up pink and purple - like a disco!

But discovering that your father is actually the Prince of Genovia is quite a shock.

Especially since it means you're a descendant of the Kingdom of Genovia, and a princess.

Olivia's got a lot to learn about her long-lost family - and everyone's got a lot to learn about her!

Olivia chronicles her transformation from ordinary girl to princess in her notebook, with illustrations from author Meg Cabot, who studied Fine Arts as an undergraduate.
