A review by lcgerstmann
The Birthday Ball by Lois Lowry

4.0

I read this book with my daughter and we both found it very enjoyable. It is a story about a princess, which is automatically appealing to young girls but this book is about a princess who is bored being a princess and sneaks out of the castle to experience real life. The writing is very witty and the characters quirky and unique. We giggled a lot at the crazy antics and groaned over the descriptions of the disgusting choices of suitors. What a fun read for a mother and daughter to share!
