The Princess and the Grilled Cheese Sandwich by Deya Muniz

Funny, amazing grilled cheese sandwiches, and modern themes (no fur balls, same sex relationships, forced marriages, a women trying to make it in a “man’s world”, etc.) fill the pages. What can two star-crossed (almost) lovers do?ĭelightfully clever and colorful images grace the pages (after all, there is FASHION!) and the last images are my absolute favorites (spoiler: wedding gowns). But if Brie learns of Cam’s secret, Cam could be killed or worse, taken from her beloved world of fashion. By doing the latter, she finds herself in the royal court, meeting the princess, Brie, and the two start to become more than friends. The other option is the one her dying father offers, become a man to inherit, but Cam would have to leave her home and move to the Kingdom of Fromage, so nobody knows her ( spoiler: she picked this and of course, she runs into someone who knows her family). Cam, as the only child of a Duke, and a female at that, must marry to have her husband claim her inheritance for her. And we get the now tone, and familiar things to help us relate.ĭeya Muniz starts their story in a manner we know.

We get glamours gowns and suits, and with the gender- bending part, a mixture of both. The mixture of the old and new theme styles allows for the best of both worlds. While things are all “Kings and Queens and Dukes and Duchesses” we have handheld video games, cute t-shirt and short ensembles, and other modern conveniences. We have the puns of the cheesiest kind (all cheese puns) and a modern love story within the pages of The Princess and the Grill Cheese Sandwich.

Warning: Included are two plot point and image spoilers!
