Diana, William, and Harry / James Patterson and Chris Mooney.
At age thirteen, she became Lady Diana Spencer. At twenty, Princess of Wales. At twenty-one, she earned her most important title: Mother. As she fell in love, first with Prince Charles and then with her sons, William and Harry, the world fell in love with the young royal family, Diana most of all. With one son destined to be King of England, and one to find his own way, she taught them dual lessons about real life and royal tradition. "William and Harry will be properly prepared," Diana once promised. "I am making sure of this." Even after the shield of her love is tragically torn away, she remains their greatest protector, and the world's enduring inspiration.

Summary
Diana, William, and Harry : The Heartbreaking Story of a Princess and Mother
Instant New York Times Bestseller! "She was the best mother in the world," said Princes William and Harry at Diana's 10-year memorial. "Entertaining and persuasive," ( Publishers Weekly ) this is the first big book about the private Diana, the mother of two princes. "Royal fans will devour this well-paced biography that gives new insight into the House of Windsor. You'll tear through it by sundown and walk away thinking about the Princess of Wales and her two sons with new perspective ." - Men's Journal From the moments William and Harry are born into the House of Windsor, they become their young mother's whole world. I've got two very healthy, strong boys. I realize how incredibly lucky I am , Diana reminds herself every morning. But even the Princess of Wales questions, Am I a good mother? Diana's faced with a seemingly impossible challenge: one son destined to be King of England and another determined to find his own way. She teaches them to honor royal tradition, even while daring to break it. "Sometimes I'd like a time machine..." Diana says as William and Harry grow up, never imagining they'd have less than a lifetime together. Even after she's gone, her sons follow their mother's lead--and her heart. As the years pass and William and Harry grow into adulthood and form families of their own, they carry on Diana's name, her likeness, and her incomparable spirit. "James Patterson applies his writerly skills to real-life history with novelistic style" ( People ) in this deeply personal and revealing biography of the world's most storied family, from the world's #1 bestselling author.
