Palace of Mirrors by Margaret Peterson Haddix
January 9, 2009 — Mary Childs
Cecelia is 14 years old and has always known the secret that she was the true princess of the kingdom of Suala. By day she is the poor peasant girl orphan living in a remote village but by night she is being tutored in palace life by Sir Stephen, a knight from the kingdom. When she senses that her identity has been revealed and she is in danger, she and her friend, Harper, leave their homes and make their way to the palace, only to find out that there are eleven other girls there with the same story! Now who is the true princess?
If you’ve read and liked Just Ella by the same author or similar “Cinderella”-type stories, you’ll enjoy the twists and turns faced by Cecelia and her friends as they try to figure out this princess mystery.
