1: If the Shoe Fits

With her feet bare (those glass slippers don't fit) and her second-hand gown splattered with mud (thanks, evil stepsisters), Ella's first day of Princess School is off to a lousy start. If she can only find her fairy godmother before the first class begins, Ella is sure she'll put things right. But her FG is off at a convention and Ella is on her own--she'll have to get through the first weeks of Princess School without any bobbity-boo. Ella is terrified--until she meets silly Snow, spunky Rapunzel, and beautiful, sheltered Rose.

2: Who's the Fairest?

The Maiden Games are fast approaching and Snow White is frozen with fear. It's bad enough that Princess School will be facing off against the nasty witches who attend the nearby Grimm School. But Snow's awful stepmother, Malodora, is one of the Grimm School's judges, and her icy stare alone is enough to make Snow quake. She's sure something terrible will happen. But if she doesn't participate, Snow will be letting down her whole school, including her best friends. Snow needs Rapunzel, Ella, and Rose more than ever. But what match are the princesses for a powerful witch like Malodora?

3: Let Your Hair Down

Rapunzel and Prince Val have been best friends for years. But lately, Val's too busy fawning over Rose. Rapunzel could really use Val and her other friends right now. Madame Gothel, the witch who keeps Rapunzel locked in the tower, just discovered that she has been climbing out to attend Princess School. Madame Gothel is furious--and determined to keep Rapunzel from escaping again. Will Rapunzel lose her friends, Princess School, and her freedom all at once--or is there a way to get the witch out of her hair?

4: Beauty is a Beast

Briar Rose is sick of everyone thinking she's perfect. Her parents won't stop doting, her guardian fairies are being real pests, and even her teachers act like she can do no wrong. Her classmates at Princess School copy everything she does and, ugh, they keep calling her Beauty. Only Ella, Rapunzel, and Snow seem to like Rose for who she really is. Rose is fed up--and determined to prove that she's more than just a pretty face. She's forming a secret plan to do just that. But what if Rose goes too far?

The Charm School for Boys is holding their annual jousting tournament and Rapunzel's friend Prince Val is a favorite to win the title...thanks to Rapunzel's coaching. Val can out-joust any prince--but can he compete against a prince-ess? Rapunzel knows she has the skills to win, but can she keep her identity a secret throughout the tournament? Can Ella, Snow, and Rose cover for her absence at Princess School? Will her friendship with Val survive the competition? And how will she ever fit her jousting helmet over all of that hair?

6: Apple-y Ever After

After years lost at sea, trapped by a curse, Snow White's father is back on shore. Snow is overjoyed, but the dwarves are wary--and it's soon apparent that the sopping sire hasn't washed off the curse completely. He has no idea who Snow White is! Snow and her friends will do anything to help her father remember the past, even if it means sneaking into the place that Snow fears most--the enchanted castle where her stepmother Malodora keeps the dreaded magic mirror.

7: Thorn In Her Side

Nobody is surprised when Rose lands the part of Princess Perfecta in the school play. At first Rose bristles at once again being cast as perfect, but soon she throws herself into her role--especially her scenes opposite Nettle, who plays the Scary Fairy. Everyone else is wary of sour little Nettle, but Rose is impressed. Nettle is a brilliant actor who always stays in character--even offstage he gives Rose withering looks and acts like he'd really like to curse her. It's almost as if Nettle actually is an evil fairy with a special grudge against Rose....
