Cheshire, Simon. The Prince and the snowgirl. Delacorte,  2006
[978-0-385-73342-7]
Tom is a look-alike actor who looks like England’s Prince George. (I
am not sure why they used a fake name.. maybe for legal reasons.)  He
goes around at various store opening and other affairs, acting as
Prince George.  Meanwhile at school he has fallen in love a girl on
the ski team with him (hence snow girl.)  Of course he is shy and does
nothing about it.  One day the ski team travels to a competition and
stays in a hotel and just for kicks, Tom pretends he is the Prince to
scam the hotel for better rooms.  Well of course you can guess what
happens, the real prince shows up.  How will Tom get out of this
situation?  Will he and “the snowgirl” ever get together?  This 167
page book is a fun read.  For students who might be bothered by it,
there are a lot of “Britishisms” in the book which some students may
not understand.
