The Spy Princess is a great book that I would recommend to kids who love adventure and mystery books. This book is a perfect combo of the two and it has lots of great characters that anybody can relate to. The princess is Lady Lilah who helps her brother, another prince (Innon), and three villagers (Derek, Bren and Deon). This is a great book, for all ages, whether recommended or not. I love this book and encourage anyone who reads this to read it.

Just right for fans of Tamora Pierce and Patricia C. Wrede!
When twelve-year-old Lady Lilah decides to disguise herself and sneak out of the palace one night, she has more of an adventure than she expected--for she learns very quickly that the country is on the edge of revolution. When she sneaks back in, she learns something even more surprising: her older brother Peitar is one of the forces behind it all. The revolution happens before all of his plans are in place, and brings unexpected chaos and violence. Lilah and her friends, leaving their old lives behind, are determined to help however they can. But what can four kids do? Become spies, of course!
