I Am Princess X

By Cherie Priest
Lexile = 790

When Libby and May were in fifth grade, they used to make up stories about Princess X. She was a tough princess; she could overcome anything. Together they filled boxes with pictures, stories and stuff about the Princess. Well, a few years later, Libby is killed in a car accident. Libby's family moves suddenly and the box of memories disappears. Most of this story actually takes place when May is 16 years old. Pictures of the princess (exactly as drawn by those little girls) begin showing up in random places. Oh yeah, and there is the website iamprincessx.com. And the posters.....

This classified as a graphic novel because interspersed with the prose you will find graphic elements from the story. A nice mix. How could you NOT like this book?
