Beautiful, popular, and adored by
all, Courtney, Amber, Tiffany, and Michelle can't wait to graduate and take
their place among the world's elite. But when all their future plans are ruined,
the girls have only one back-up plan-working as costumed princesses at the local
amusement park. Unfortunately, increased gang activity has driven away all but
the most loyal of customers. With the park on the verge of closing, the girls
resolve to fight back, bring back their adoring customers, save the amusement
park they never wanted to work at, and maybe learn something about themselves
along the way.

BOOKLIST-Amber, Tiffany, Michelle, and Courtney haveit all figured out. They're smart, pretty, athletic, and popular seniors in high
school and they play the coveted roles of the four princesses at their town's
seasonal "Enchanted Park." Still, they're more than ready to say
good-bye to the part-time gig (next summer, they'll be heading to college,
Europe, or modeling gigs, of course) when, one by one, they learn their dreams
might be out of reach for now. Then another surprise: Enchanted Park has become
the target of repeated thievery, and its (let's face it, already crumbling)
facade is tarnished in the eyes of the community. But could it be that these two
wrongs-the park's future in jeopardy and the girls' post high-school plans
turned to dust-make a big right? The princesses stay on at the park and discover
that this surprising challenge would be thrilling to overcome... together.
Gallagher's zippy black-and-white art and sometimes-wordless spreads keep the
pace quick, and a blossoming love between two of the girls will charm
readers.
