Mia Thermopolis is fourteen and has problems. She is flunking algebra. Her Mom is dating her algebra teacher. Her father is prince of Genovia and since he is no longer capable of having children because of cancer, he expects her to fulfill her role as Princess of Genovia by spending summers in Genovia. Her problematic Grandmere is coming to New York for a visit. Definitely for YA, this book is an entertaining read...and a great algebra review. I listened to this book on audio and Anne Hathaway, who played Mia in the movie, did a fantastic job. Meg Cabot says that this book is based on events that happened in her own life. Her Dad did have cancer, but was not a prince. Her Mom did date her teacher. The movie was made before the book was published.
