The Middle Princess

By Melanie A. Stinson

Stuck in the middle. Stuck in the middle. Stuck in the middle. Grrr.

Royal Princess Midori wants out of the middle! No more middle anything. Older brother Singepeter has to be first - always. He's sooo bossy! Little sis Kettil, the baby of the family, copies him. Boo hiss.

"Nix and fix it!" cries the little dragon. "Let's go to into the enchanted forest to change it."

Will Midori get out of the middle? Or is she stuck in the middle forever?

This chapter book is intended for ages 8-10, though older readers may enjoy it, and parents can read this four chapter book to younger children.

For Elisa

who many years ago said,

I would never want to be the middle princess,

and thus began the story

With deep gratitude and appreciation to all my readers and their moms, my proofreaders, editors and my support team. I also wish to thank those who’ve given me countless spiritual guidance, my mother and father who supported me and this project; my sister Pamela, who waded through this book early in its infancy; SCBWI Michigan and Ohio, Northwest Ohio Writers Forum, and last but not least those young people (and their parents who allowed them) to participate in being photographed for use in this book
