A lively tale of one young woman’s adventure to pass her Official Princess Test, discover a means of escape from her island, and reveal her true destiny.
Thirteen-year-old orphan Black Bee Bright (B. B. for short) is funny, quirky, precocious, and adventurous. But B. B. has a secret. She’s captive on an island in “the middle of very tropical nowhere” because she’s forced to hide her true identity as a royally born princess from her parents’ enemies in Raven World. B. B. must find a way to escape to “the Other World” where there are best friends and cool clothes, but she can’t escape the island until she passes her Official Princess Test and undertakes a dangerous journey alone to the East side of the island, where eight princesses must help her discover what it truly means to be a princess.

Dear Diary,

I want off this island. If I can’t step off by myself, I hope maybe I can sneak you, Diary, into the bottom of one of the crates of honey we bottle and ship out every month to The Other World. 

If some girl finds this diary, maybe she’ll write to me and I’ll have a friend.  I want a friend! A girl. My age! Or maybe some boy will find you, read you, fall in love with me, then rush over to the island to meet me . . . no matter what.

And I want to take off the necklace with the huge darkstar they make me wear every hour of every day!

None of that’s going to happen. I’m going to be stuck on this island forever! Unless I can smuggle you out—and someone comes. For me!

Continues...
