Roddy Hall overhears his mother saying "Princess" is coming to visit. He's excited--he's always wanted a dog. But then he finds out that--ick--Princess is a girl and--yuck--she'll be staying for a whole week. One night, Princess, Roddy, and his best friend, Jacob, notice a mysterious car pull up to an abandoned house. Could it be a burglar? Or worse yet, a ghost? Princess is determined to find out, and against his better judgment, Roddy goes along with her. They sneak out of the house to investigate--but will they be ready for what they might find? Princess for a Week is a Society for School Librarians International Honor Book.
