(4) 4-6 Bradley's tale considers the possible social, political, and emotional conflicts faced by Isabelle, a working-class girl brought to dine and socialize with the daughter of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. Isabelle, entranced by palace life and ashamed of her meager home, must choose between the two, as the French Revolution nears. Though politics occasionally obscures plot, details of life at Versailles enrich the story.
