For starters--why on earth was this book in the Young Adult section of my library? That is just unexplainably bizarre and uncomprehensible! Why put a candyfloss book inbetween Scott Westerfield and Jane Austen? Not literally, as alphabetically that wouldn't work, but teenage books are supposed to be suited to teenagers. This book, I repeat, was candyfloss.

I loved this book. It was about a normal teenage girl who played soccer. In the beggining the princess ruins caseys life by being proncessey, or whatever. anyways the princess has to learn how to be a normal teenage cousin of cassey. Not Possible she thinks. Casey gets more friends than ever when "Egg"(the princess) came. Egg becomes a cheerleader and becomes popular. she has to go though when the wizard learns how she can come back to her palace. they do right after she becomes homeco...more
Casey and her grandma love to go yard sale shopping, so when they discover a cheap, mysterious, old box that won’t open, they are sure that there something good inside. When they finally get the box open at home, a princess pops out! Turns out that the royal wizard was supposed to make the box appear and disappear, but he wasn’t very talented and not only did the box disappear for good, but it took the princess with it! Now the princess is stuck living in modern California with the Peabody fa...more
I liked this sweet book about a medeviel princess who is magically transported to modern day. Princess Egg drives Casey Peabody crazy! Egg is all girl, and Casey is a major tom boy. The two learn to get a long and each ends up teaching the other a thing or two. I like the theme of this book - be yourself and people will like you for who you are.
My daughter picked this book at the library, and I ended up reading it. I thought it was a great little story about how this real princess and a modern teenager end up bringing out the best in each other. Very cute story for young preteens. (and their moms)
This was a pretty cute book. I liked the plot and characters a lot. The use of old english language is going to be good for the younger readers to see. Definitely a book for girls. I liked the surprise ending and was left with a happily-ever-after feeling.
Casey, a tomboy eight grader, and her grandma (Gran)buy a metal box from a yard sale and they discover a real live princess from Trewllyn. This story has a nice plot.
I really liked this book. It was a fun, creative teen book. Quick reading but kept me entertained. Surprisingly really liked how it ended.
It was really good. It felt like I was actually there in the story. I felt the way tthe characters would throughout the book.
A fun book about how a sports loving tomboy and a medieval princess learn how to bring out the best in each other.
If you like humor, magic, and princesses from the past then the is a perfect choice for you!
Definitely a YA book, but delightfully written with a great message about being yourself.
This was a very sweet book. Appropriate for pre-teens. My daughter liked it too!
An entertaining book which I liked quite a lot.
luved it. but best the first time
"The Princess and the Peabodys" is a great book. I learned that if you are yourself you can accomplish anything. Another thing I learned was that not to judge anyone before i know them. My favorite part o the book is when Eglantine (Egg) says "My life in Trewellyn was like living in a mirror but her i have truly lived." This shows that we need to be thankful for where we live and take care of it. It also shows that other people wish they lived like us and ever...more
Adorable!! As cute as the cover. When a teenage wizard blunders a spell that sends a real, live medieval princess to the Peabodys' house, fourteen-year-old Casey Peabody is in for a royal mess! It was bad enough attending Pine Glen Junior High with a squad of cheerleading princesses. Now suddenly Casey has to contend with a real princess of her own.
This book is funny and interesting!!!!!
I like it. it is about a girl who has to deal with of course a princess and the princess gets popular. it is a funny book so far
This was adorable. I read it this summer (2007) and for any young preteen/teen girl who reads it without enjoyment they are crazy. The authors style is witty, snappy, the flow is fast and frenzied. The princess is a hoot and the poor Peabody family just rolls with it.

Princess/time-travel read. It was alright, but I think there's better ones out there.
