Wisdom's Kiss

(2) YA Murdock's gleeful nontraditional fairy tale stars feisty Princess Wisdom; loyal inn-worker-turned-lady-in-waiting Trudy; and gallant acrobat Tips, who captures both girls' hearts. Letters, diaries, a biography, and--most amusingly--a play are incorporated into the distinctive narrative structure. Royal politics, magic, a nasty villain, and a narcissistic cat combine for a witty, unconventional tale that's highly original.
