Description:

Meet Princess Cimorenea princess who refustes to be proper. She is everything a princess is not supposed to be: headstrong, tomobyish smart...

And bored.

So bored that she runs away to live with a dragon. And not just any dragon, but Kazulone of the most powerful and dangerous dragons arounds. Of course, Cimorene has a way of hooking up with dangerous characters, and soon she's coping with a witch,a a jinn, a death-dealing talking bird, a stone prince, and some very oily wizards.

If this princess ran away to find some excitement, it looks like she's found plenty! With a new look and new introduction from the author.

Cimorene, the daughter of a very proper king, runs away and becomes the princess of a very powerful dragon, Kazul. “A decidedly diverting novel with plenty of action and many slightly skewed fairy-tale conventions that add to the laugh-out-loud reading pleasure and give the story a wide appeal.”--Booklist
