Reign (American Royals #4)

by Katharine McGee

This was why elementary school appearances had always been her favorites. Children didn’t treat you any differently if you were a princess, or an ex-princess; they didn’t care about the color of your skin or how much money your family had. They didn’t gasp in shock if you dated someone who wasn’t the same race. They treated everyone with the same cheerful indifference—unless, of course, you had cookies, and then you were their favorite person. If only adults were as wonderfully blind to prejudice, the world would be a much better place.
