In her heart of hearts, all Mia Thermopolis (Princess of Genovia) wants to do is go to the prom. She can just imagine it: twirling into the night with Michael Moscovitz, her own true love, in a pink floor-length dress that even Lana Weinberger would be jealous of. But achieving her daydreams is more difficult than Mia imagined. She knows that Michael loves her, but he adamantly refuses to attend his senior prom. He's rather go bowling, he says. BOWLING! Now, where's the romance in that, Mia asks? On top of that, her best friend Lilly is dating a boy named Jangbu behind her real boyfriend Boris' back; Tina's going through heartbreak not being able to attend the prom; her grandmother is involved in a restaurant scandal with said Jangbu; Mia's mom is pregnant again; and all the while, Michael remains oblivious to Mia's deep desires. Even as a princess, Mia seems unable to get what she wants. In the end, will Mia be in Michael's arms under the dreamy lights of the prom, or will she be at home eating her own chocolates spending another prom night alone?

Things are looking up for Mia: She's the newest staffer on the school paper, and her miraculous completion of freshman Algebra is just around the corner. Plus she's about to get a new baby brother or sister. Could things possibly get any better?
But in her heart of hearts, Mia has one wish: an evening spent with Michael in a tux and a corsage on her wrist -- in other words, the PROM. Michael, however, does not seem to share the dream that is the prom. Worse still, a service workers strike (with Grandmère and Lilly at the heart of it and on opposite sides) threatens the very existence of this year's prom.
Will the strike end in time? Can Michael be dissuaded from his anti-prom views? Most importantly, will Mia get to wear her pink prom dress?
