This was a cute side book from the series and had real life advice of etiquette and manners. Great for young girls!

Short Review for a Short Book

This was so cute! It's basically all the stuff she learns in the movie, like crossing the ankles, and then more stuff we didn't "see" in the movie!

I really liked how it had chapters and tips from others such as her grandma, and her stylist!

I would probably starve to death if i was a princess, wayyyyyy too hard to remember which forks goes with what, and i know for sure i would end up drinking the stuff you're supposed to rinse your hands in or eat the stuff that you're supposed to use to clean your taste buds.

The thank you notes part was cute as well, i know in this day in age, Thank You notes are pretty much gone, but i think we need to bring them back!

Yessss! It's an etiquette book full of interjections from favorite Princess Diaries characters.

I'm sure you can enjoy without reading the series. I learned SO MUCH from this, everyone should read it and buy it as a present for your little cousin or something.

Tips on how to be a princess from Princess Mia & her friends. As well as, some not too close to friends, like Paolo!

This was cute, and had some good general notes. Read it mostly because I've been missing the early Princess Diaries books - getting all nostalgic and stuff.

Princess Lessons is a compilation of tips and tricks on how to be a princess from our favorite Princess Diaries characters. It includes beauty tips from Paolo, etiquette from Grandmere, and other fun advice and facts about real princesses from various people in the Princess Diaries world.

I really loved this. I think Princess Lessons would be the perfect gift to give a tween or young teen who is a fan of the series. Even if they're not fans of the series they might enjoy it, but it's better to be familiar with the characters in order to understand some of the humor involved. Some of the tips were actually really good. There's a mix of actual advice and silly things such as the proper way to curtsy or wear a crown. So, it doesn't read like a manual because of the humor and side-notes from Mia. It stresses confidence, good hygiene, kindness, and just being yourself. A great message to young people who are under constant pressure to look and act a certain way.

This is by no means necessary to the series in general. It doesn't further the story or have any plot points, but it's a great companion that provides awesome tips all the while making you laugh.

Great lessons on how to be a kind person and to be yourself

Excited to wear my tiara properly now that I know how

Reads like a guide book, but still interesting as the author has put the personality of each contributing character into play. I found it interesting that even Lana played a role. I also enjoyed Mia's little interjections when she wanted to clarify something, or when she disagreed with what was said. Cute little addition to the series.
Plot or Character Driven: N/A
Diverse cast of characters: No


This was more an etiquette book than part of the rest of the series. Each of the characters wrote a chapter. Most were not humorous. It was worth the read as it was part of the series, hurt not of much interest, otherwise.
