The Birthday Ball, by Lois Lowry
Princess Patricia Priscilla is bored, bored, bored. She devises a plan to escape the boredom, and makes her chambermaid switch identities with her so she can attend the village school as a peasant girl. She enjoys the life outside the castle walls and is not looking forward to her 16th birthday party, where she will have to decide who to marry among her suitors. A fun fairy-tale with many memorable characters.
