Rating:  Summary: Truly a masterpiece Review: I got this book from my 4th-grade "secret santa" and I absolutely devoured it. This is the book that transformed me from a "Sweet Valley Twins" kind of reader to the glorious, full-fledged nerd I am today, and I couldn't be more grateful. Unfortunately I lost my first copy of this book, so I am extra-happy that it's back in print. Every young girl should read this, as it will teach a person how to truly dream.
Rating:  Summary: Timeless Tale Review: I picked this book up randomly at a book fair in elementary school. Loved it so much I completely wore out my copy (literally fell to pieces) and was devestated when I couldn't find it again. I kept going back to school book fairs trying to find it again and finally figured I'd check out Amazon. Delighted to find it! Hope my kids enjoy it as much as I did!
Rating:  Summary: A tale that stays with you Review: I read a lot of books as a child, I was a real bookworm - but none of them have stayed with me the way this fantasy did. I can't wait to have a daughter with whom I can share this book!
Rating:  Summary: A book for anyone with a vivd imagination Review: I read this book in fourth grade, and absolutely loved it. I still haven't been able to find it after all these years. It's one of those few books I still remember, and one I always look for when I visit a new library. I was, and still am fond of fantasy/adventure books that follow the same vein as "Seventh Princess". Stories like "Castle in the attic", and Grimms fairy tales. One day I would like to at least read this book again, if not have it in my own personal library.
Rating:  Summary: I am so excited! Review: I read this book when I was in 6th grade (I'm 21 now) and have been searching for it ever since, finally buying a really beat up copy from a used bookstore. I am so excited that it's being reprinted! This is a wonderful story- especially if you like fantasy, or princesses, or magic. Now I can make sure all my friends read the book I've loved for years!
Rating:  Summary: One of my treasures! Review: I've had this book since grade 3 or 4 (don't remember)and I love it!! I can't believe it's been almost 15 years since I read it. I'm proud to say that it's in mint condition. ...It's a great book, lots of magic spells, wizardry and castles. I'm so happy that it's going to be printed again. It's a must for every young girl, I highly recommend it.
Rating:  Summary: One of my favorite books!!! Highly recomended for girls! Review: Jenny's a normal girl having a normal day on a normal school bus. Then she closes her eyes and wakes up in a...carriage. In a strange land. Where she is adopted by the king and named a princess.But she isn't just any princess. She's the seventh princess of a line of five other adopted princesses who were turned into harpies by an evil witch. If she doesn't want the same thing to happen to her, she's gotta do something about it. This was my favorite book in the fourth grade. A definite keeper, which I still remember almost a decade later. A girl can really relate to Jenny's predicament, can really believe that maybe she herself could be in Jenny's place. As for the adventure...unbelievable. The only strange part was the simpleness of the counterspell--it was a little weak for me. Still, it's all part of the fantasy. Magic, switch from the normal world into the magical world, hapries, spells, witches, royalty, and good old fashioned school buses. A great, great book.

Rating:  Summary: Great Book from Childhood! Review: Well, I am 25 now and my thoughts kept straying back to this great book I read when I was a kid about princesses, a guy named Prospero, and a girl on a school bus. I wanted to find this book again since I loved it so much!
It has a simple beginning, and a simple way to end it, but the in between stuff is so rich and you get pulled into the beautiful fantasy of it...and wish that you too could be transported somewhere else while riding in your own school bus. I definetely recommend adding it to your collection.
Rating:  Summary: One of my favorite books!!! Highly recomended for girls! Review: WOW!!! I totally LOVE this book!!! I got it from my second cousin Brittany. I have NO IDEA why the heck she got rid of it. It's such a good book! I've read this book twice because it's so dang good! The story starts out with Jennifer (just an ordinary girl) riding to school on a bus. On the bus she falls asleep. When she wakes up she finds herself in a really fancy carrige. She knows she definitely hasn't gone crazy! After she gets out of the carrige, she sees that she's in a different world! People are calling her Princess Miranda and stuff. Later on she finds out that she is the next -and last- target for Duke Rinaldo and Swenhild, a witch. What will she do? She's just a helpless little girl. Or is she? I won't give away the ending. You'll have to read it yourself. This is a must-have book. I suggest you buy it right away. If you don't, you're missin' out!
