Have you ever known someone who was spoiled rotten and then one day her most precious possession is taken away? The Princess Test by Gaul Levine tells a story about a young girl name Lorelei who always had her way in everything. But then her mom died and she was very heartbroken. Lorelei is a really life like character that keeps the reader involved with very strong emotions like she have filling for people if someone is sad and she sees it she would help out just like when her mother pass away and Trudy that watches her did everything for her for example if her bed was not made right Trudy would have to fix it over and over and until it was just right for her. Lorelei is a girl who doesn't know how to do anything. Before her mother passed away, she didn't teach Lorelei how to do anything like cook or wash clothes but when the women Trudy had her wash a dish because Lorelei ask to help Lorelei had gotten a big rash. Her mother did everything she could to keep a smile on Lorelei's face which was a very nice thing to do for her daughter, but now that she is gone, Lorelei is helpless. This book is very good. I liked it because I'm really into stories that have love in it. The way I felt about this book is that I really have feelings about what's going to happen next and I really like when that happens it kind of have something like who's going to win because it has a lot of women that the prince has to pick to marry. But I think I already know who the prince wants to marry. The role the prince is this young man that bumps into a young girl and they both start to talk to each other but the prince starts to like her. But the prince also has to consider who his parents want him to marry. Would if his parents like the girl he falls in love with? What if his parents don't like the person that he likes? It's very good and what I'm trying to say as she was younger and she was very picky about things she never grew out of it she still the same and what I'm trying to say about that do you t think the prince is going to like her steel if he sees how she really is.how do you think she will act if she gets picked as a princess, do you think everything will have to go perfect for her? Does everything have to go just the way she wants it? I really have a lot of feelings about this book so this is a really good book it's and I think and I think who ever read it is going to enjoy it.

I have read and enjoyed all of "The Princess Tales" novellas written so far by Gail Carson Levine. Though all are lively and fabulous retellings of famous fairy tales, "The Princess Test" is one of the best. This sassy remake of "The Princess and the Pea" presents us with a fussy, fidgety, picky heroine who is prone to accidents and allergies. These traits hint that she above all people will be able to feel that pea underneath the multitude of mattresses when the time comes. This is a light, enjoyable book, great for the whole family to share or to treat yourself to on a breezy summer day.

This book was a classic fairy-tale story about an ordinary girl who is beautiful and kind, but when she offers to clean the dishes, she'll get a rash from the soapy water. Her father is a very busy widower whom hires a housekeeper to help around the house since his fragile daughter can't do anything except embroider and say if her bandage is too tight or too loose-- perfection is everything for her. Meanwhile, Prince Nicholas has to find a "true princess" Thus, any princess hoping to be queen shall take the princess test. The two stories collide when Prince Nicholas rides by Lorelei, the main characterand finds her "Looked pretty in the distance. As he got closer, she was still pretty. Not a raving pretty, but definitley pretty." He suddenly likes her in a loving way just by her beauty. When he comes home to his castle, his mother and father, the King and Queen tell him about the princess test and he wonders if Lorelei could pass the test. Will she even find out? Read this book for a adveture through love, worrries, and a splurge of fary-tale fun!

Superficially, one could point out that this book has only 100 or so pages and has double-spaced print. But that's silly. Because this book is so amazing! It tells the story of Lorilei, a girl who is extremly sensitive to everything. I mean, she can only sleep on satin sheets and the only chore she can perform without getting hurt is embrodery. When Lorilei falls in love with a prince, she finds out that his parents only want him to marry a true princess. There are having a series of tests to find a real princess. The tests are things like finding a fleck of raw noodle in a salad or finding the missing stitch in a tapestry . . . or feeling a pea through a mattress! Lorilei is up for this challange, as it's her "talent" . . . but will she pass the tests? The prince Nicolas, by the way, is a simple character but is NOT one-dimensinal like most fairy-tale princes are. And a great character was the king or father of the prince. He has the habit of using symolies or words that mean the same thing in a sentence. I hope you understand or comprehend what I mean about the king or monarch. He was one of my favorite or most-liked characters. Anyway, Lorilei is delightful, Trudy is hilarious, and this book shows that love is more important than blood . . . and that our "faults" can sometimes be our alleys. Read or look at the words of this story!
