Books arrive before ballgowns with the Bookish Princess, who'd rather talk about her favorite story than her own gown. She grew up in a small town that never quite understood her, and she's used to being the one who sees past a rough exterior to what's actually underneath. She asks the birthday child what they're currently reading before she asks anything else, and she'll happily argue about which chapter is the best one in whatever book they hand her.
From Riverside and San Bernardino to central Inland Empire, Bookish Princess arrives fully costumed and completely in character for parties across the Inland Empire.

Her gown is a rich yellow satin with a structured bodice and a full, layered skirt that catches the light beautifully during the dance portion, finished with elbow-length gloves that hold up through a full afternoon of handshakes and hugs. A wide sash at the waist ties the whole silhouette together for the ballroom-dance photos.
Age-appropriate themed games matched to your character — from hero training to royal etiquette.
Simple cheek art or a temporary tattoo, included with every visit.
