Wicked Marigold

Princess Marigold — who hadn’t yet been born when the remarkable Princess Rosalind was kidnapped — is eleven when the unthinkable happens: her older sister escapes her captivity and comes home. Marigold has always known she’s not as good, sweet, or kind as the sister everyone adores, but amid the celebration of Rosalind’s return, Marigold realizes something new: if Princess Rosalind is good, then Princess Marigold must be wicked. And there’s no place for wickedness in the kingdom.

When Marigold tries to find a new place for herself in an evil wizard’s fortress, though, the results are disastrous. Before she’s even learned to cackle or scowl properly, she gets tangled up in a magical plot to ruin all the Cacophonous Kingdoms. Is Marigold too wicked to make things right? Or can she — with the help of a kitchen boy, a well-dressed imp, and a grumpy blob of glop — find her own way to restore peace? This endearing fantasy will have both princess and anti-princess fans (as well as anyone who has felt trapped in the shadow of a sibling) chuckling and cheering.

Description

"In a refreshing reversal of classic fairy-tale tropes, Marigold decides that instead of committing to the impossible task of being good, she should dedicate herself to being villainous — and who better to teach her than the wizard who originally kidnapped her sister? But being wicked is harder than it seems, since Marigold doesn’t have a natural talent for magic. To make things worse, a miscast curse now threatens her newfound way of life: If Marigold doesn’t work with best friend Collin, a kitchen boy, to set things right, her life (and career as a villain!) may be cut short. Full of snappy humor, delightful wordplay, and quirky characters — a tentacled, people-eating creature called the Thing, a spiffy imp, and a reticent blob — this book is a whimsical exploration of belonging and sibling relationships." — Kirkus Reviews
