Queen has crowns, pretty dresses, a castle-like house, and a very high opinion of herself. On 33rd Street, she expects people to treat her like royalty. Then Leroy arrives at school on a broken bike, wearing worn-out clothes and telling stories Queen does not believe. When he says he is an African prince from Senegal, Queen becomes determined to prove he is lying. But the more she watches him, the more she begins to see that there may be more to Leroy, and to herself, than she first understood. The Broken Bike Boy and the Queen of 33rd Street is a lively chapter book about friendship, pride, kindness, and learning that being important is not the same as being good to others.
