Synopsis

Princess Harriet is nobody's hamster damsel in distress! Book two of this series for Babymouse and Princess in Black fans is filled with even more action and twisted fairy tale fun Princess Harriet has absolutely no interest in brushing her hair, singing duets with woodland animals, or any other typical princess activities. So when a fairy tells a very bored Harriet about twelve mice princesses who are cursed to dance all night long, she happily accepts the quest and sets off with a poncho of invisibility and her trusty battle quail. But when she arrives at the Mouse Kingdom, she discovers there's more to the curse than meets the eye, and trying to help is dangerous business . . . even for a tough princess like Harriet. From the creator of Dragonbreath, comes a laugh-out-loud funny new comic-hybrid series, bursting with girl power and furry fairy tale retellings.

Goodreads review by Stephanie on May 02, 2016

In this version, the princesses are saved not by a soldier......more

Goodreads review by Wendi on July 12, 2017

After just the first few pages, I was enchanted by Princess Harriet, a hamster who goes on adventures and fight ogres rather than succumb to expectations of what she's meant to do/be. I didn't read the first book in the series; apparently this is a trend with me and elementary chapter books - I just......more

Goodreads review by Mary on March 17, 2016

The return of Princess Harriet, still the typical rebellious princess with a quirky interest in fractions -- no longer cursed and so no longer invincible. It opens with her bored because of things like ogres taking up vegetarianism to avoid her. She meets a shrew by the side of the road -- an old fra......more

Goodreads review by Kathleen on January 01, 2023

Of Mice and Magic follows up where Harriet the Invincible leaves off. Harriet, no longer so invincible thanks to the events of book one and hilariously bitter about it, sets off with her battle quail Mumfrey to find something to do because she is so bored, you guys, SO BORED. Happily for Harriet she......more

Goodreads review by Panda on March 23, 2016

Harriet the Hamster takes on "The Twelve Dancing Princesses." I wish this had existed when I was twelve, because it would have made my fractured-fairy-tale-loving soul inordinately happy. Thankfully, I didn't really grow up, so it can still bring great joy into my life. Highly recommended.......more
