SERIES DESCRIPTION

Princess Ellie is absolutely, positively crazy about her ponies! She has four perfect ponies and the entire palace grounds in which to ride them. Royal rules about being a princess are boring compared to the fun she has with her adorable ponies. Along with her best friend, Kate, Ellie goes exploring, solves mysteries, and, of course, spends as much time with her ponies as possible.

BOOK #8: PRINCESS ELLIE SOLVES A MYSTERY

The King and Queen are excited about getting an extreme palace makeover, but Princess Ellie isn’t at all impressed with top designer Lord Leo. She just can’t shake the feeling that there’s more to this mystery man than meets the eye—and with the help of her ponies, she’s determined to find out exactly what that is.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't get enough of Princess Ellie, November 17, 2008

This review is from: Pony-Crazed Princess #8: Princess Ellie Solves a Mystery (Paperback)

My [...] daughter loves Princess Ellie! Every night she begs for just one more chapter. I must admit that I read her this one all in one night because I wanted to find out what the decorator was up to! These books have stories that are easy to follow for younger readers. They do not have pictures on every page, so my four year olds don't usually hang around for long. If your child is reading at a 2nd grade or higher reading level, they should be able to read these books on their own. This story (as other Princess Ellie books) did NOT contain any name calling, foul language, etc. Princess Ellie does not always agree with her parents or her governess, Miss Stringle. However, Princess Ellie remains respectful and in this book when her parents don't believe her (dad asks for proof)...she finds the proof. My daughter particularly loved that Princess Ellie and Miss Stringle found common ground in this book.
