"Life in the Seven Kingdoms is never dull . . . " -Jen McConnel, School Library Journal

Can she finally use the one tool that's never worked. . .her quiet voice?
Organizing a party is hard! When you're a behind-the-scenes inventor princess, it's even worse.
But when your royal parents fall ill with croquet fever? All they want to do is play croquet!
The pressure's on!
Then your royal aunt burns down the castle. . .
And your fairy godmother's booby-trapped gift means. . .
No one hears you at all!
What's a princess to do?
