I read this book before, and I have to say a warning to parents that have younger kids interested in this book. THE MOVIE DOES NOT HAVE THE INNAPROPRIATE PARTS OF IT! This book was made into a Disney movie, but although the movie is rated PG. The book has more dirty language, and some sexual references.

What Parents Need to Know
About Valentine Princess: A Princess Diaries Book
Parents need to know that there's prolific mention of name brands, usage of teenage jargon "like" and "she was all," and discussion of first romantic encounters. There are references to sidecar drinks, flat and big-chested girls, losing virginity on prom night, and kids using the drug Ecstasy. While this book appeals to younger tweens, the princess' teen issues are a better fit for readers 12 and up.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about Valentine's Day -- what is this holiday about? Is it a means for card companies to earn money or are there meaningful, cost-free ways to observe it? Even though Mia is a princess, how is she still relatable to readers? Why does Mia keep a journal? Parents can point out how the process of journaling helps kids make sense of events in their lives -- a valuable tool during the tumultuous tween/teen years.
