ThePrince And The Dressmaker by Jen Wang, 277 pages
“Paris, at the dawn of the modern age: Prince Sebastian is
looking for a bride--or rather, his parents are looking for one for him.
Sebastian is too busy hiding his secret life from everyone. At night he puts on
daring dresses and takes Paris by storm as the fabulous Lady Crystallia--the
hottest fashion icon in the world capital of fashion! Sebastian's secret weapon
(and best friend) is the brilliant dressmaker Frances--one of only two people
who know the truth: sometimes this boy wears dresses. But Frances dreams of
greatness, and being someone's secret weapon means being a secret. Forever. How
long can Frances defer her dreams to protect a friend? Jen Wang weaves an
exuberantly romantic tale of identity, young love, art, and family. A fairy
tale for any age, The Prince and the Dressmaker will steal your heart.” This was an absolutely lovely story. It will appeal to teens who like graphic
novels, but teens who feel like they are different from their classmates will
almost certainly want to read it.
