This was absolutely the cutest book I've read in a long time! I don't normally read graphic novels, but so many people have been talking about this book. So when I saw it at the library I had to pick it up. I immediately sat down to read this when I got home and read it all in one sitting. Absolutely adorable!

This is a story about a prince who secretly likes to wear dresses at night and how he has to hide that from his family. He meets a dressmaker and asks her to make all of his dresses. It shows how their friendship evolves and how he finally has to come out to everyone and tell them who he really is. It's a story about how we shouldn't have to hide who we really are inside, which is something we all need to remember these days.

I'm definitely having my daughter, who's 11, read this. I think she'd enjoy the cute artwork, the story line and the overall message it portrays. I now want to read some more graphic novels like this since having read it!
