Queen is a fifth grader that believes herself to be royalty. Her father has always told her that she is a queen. Her brothers shower with Queen like gifts. She views the world around her (including her classmates and her teacher) as her royal subjects.

Queen realizes that being royal proves especially challenging when she tries to make friends with her lowly subjects. She becomes frustrated when stinky, lying; Prince Leroy comes into her kingdom and seems to be taking the spotlight off of her. This is a book about the importance of friendship, and the importance of having self-worth and being gracious.
