About this book
Lady Camembert wants to live life on her own terms, without marriage. Well, without marrying a man, that is. But the law of the land is that women cannot inherit. So when her father passes away, she does the only thing she can: She disguises herself as a man and moves to the capital city of the Kingdom of Fromage to start over as Count Camembert. But it's hard to keep a low profile when the beautiful Princess Brie, with her fierce activism and great sense of fashion, catches her attention. Camembert can't resist getting to know the princess, but as the two grow closer, will she able to keep her secret? A romantic comedy about mistaken identity, true love, and lots of grilled cheese.
Censorship history
In 2024, "The Princess and the Grilled Cheese Sandwich" by Deya Muniz was banned at the school level in several districts across the United States due to its LGBTQ+ content and perceived immorality. This ban was part of a broader trend where numerous books featuring LGBTQ+ themes faced challenges from parent-teacher associations and school boards, leading to formal complaints and votes to remove them from school libraries. The specific outcomes varied, with some districts upholding the bans while others faced legal challenges from advocacy groups seeking to reinstate the books.
