About the Author:
"Clever, well-plotted and good fun." --Kirkus Reviews
"[T]he fairy-tale action and vivid scenes, from glittering dragon cave to posh dress shop, are captivating, and readers will easily connect with brave Creel, who weathers betrayals and learns to value true friends and her own talents." --Booklist
"First-time author George has created an endearing fantasy with quirky twists on traditional elements. ...The tale is told deftly and with warm humor, and readers will bond quickly with sensible country girl Creel. Romance, friendship, and betrayal all spice the mix, and readers looking for something to follow Hale's Princess Academy will find pleasure here." --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
"A magical, fun-filled page-turner for middle-grade readers that's a far cry from an old-school Cinderella story." --Bookpage
"This is a light-hearted fantasy tale at its best." --MeridianMagazine.com
