"Hello, my name's Histamine and I'm eleven. People say I'm very pretty, no question about it: perfect nose, pointy teeth, devastating smile, not to mention my nails... they also say I'm unbearable. Well, I have to disagree I'm not unbearable because I can't bear anything unbearable myself: people who smell bad, people who lie, people who are too sad, anyone too happy to take any kind of risk. When you're like me, life's not that straightforward. But I do have allies in this daily battle: my grandmother Suzanne (who's a princess,
like me), Isabelle, an allergy doctor, Marie-Martine G rard, a (very) na ve but efficient careers adviser, etc. And do you want to know why I'm called Histamine? Histamine is a substance connected with allergies and, as I'm allergic to everything, except for love and dreams... This book is the first volume of my memoirs. Even when you're just eleven there's already a lot to talk about if you lead a full enough life. And when you look at my plans for the years ahead... you won't be disappointed in 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014..."

Princess Histamine is the first volume in a series of adventures about an eleven-year-old girl. An opportunity to follow Erik Orsenna on a whole new journey and to view new landscapes of curiosity. As is usually the case, he uses a story to ask questions about the world and try to explain its mysteries.
