Official synopsis Publisher
Mia Thermopolis is your average urban ninth grader. Even though she lives in Greenwich Village with a single mom who is a semifamous painter, Mia still puts on her Doc Martens one at a time, and the most exciting things she ever dreams about are smacking lips with sexy senior Josh Richter, “six feet of unadulterated hotness,” and passing Algebra I. Then Mia’s dad comes to town, and drops a major bomb. Turns out he’s not just a European politician as he’s always lead her to believe, but actually the prince of a small country! And Mia, his only heir, is now considered the crown princess of Genovia! She doesn’t even know how to begin to cope: “I am so NOT a princess…. You never saw anyone who looked less like a princess than I do. I mean, I have really bad hair… and… a really big mouth and no breasts and feet that look like skis.” And if this news wasn’t bad enough, Mia’s mom has started dating her algebra teacher, the paparazzi is showing up at school, and she’s in a huge fight with her best friend, Lilly. How much more can this reluctant Cinderella handle?
