Lois Lowry's THE BIRTHDAY BALL is wonderful, hilarious fun. Anyone who enjoys word play will adore it. Lowry takes a familiar fairy tale theme and turns it into a romp through a castle where she shows exactly how everything works, where royalty doesn't take itself too seriously, and where villains are over-the-top outrageous. A birthday ball is planned where suitors will woo her. The very bored princess knows that once she is married, she will not have much freedom, so she swaps clothes with her chambermaid to spend the week as a peasant girl attending the village school. There she meets the handsome, sweetly smart schoolteacher. The Birthday Ball, by Lowis Lowry, is a fun and whimsical fairy tale about a bored Princess Patricia Priscilla. She is a princess who has everything she could ever want, except excitement. She's a young woman of the age 15, and will soon be part of a suitor's ball that will end with her becoming married to one of the three young men who are interested.
