The book is about Maria, a spirited little girl who never paid much attention to manners. That is, until she receives a special invitation to a royal tea party at the palace.

Excited but unaware of the etiquette required for such an event, Maria's wild and unruly behavior almost sabotages her. Just when it seems all hope is lost, a whimsical fairy godmother appears (one who looks curiously a lot like her grandmother), ready to guide Maria on a path toward kindness and respect.

With each sprinkle of magic, Maria discovers that table manners aren't just rules to follow-they're a way to show gratitude and consideration for others.
