Real Princesses Change the World

Princesses are often portrayed as sweet, beautiful, and graceful, confined to the notion of searching for a handsome prince. However, this one-dimensional image sends a message to children who admire them that may not be entirely empowering. This picture book presents a refreshing perspective by compiling biographies of eleven princesses, shedding light on their true identities. These princesses are not just confined to the traditional roles of royalty but are also diplomats, engineers, activists, athletes, and more. The book highlights their achievements and contributions.

The stunning portraits, created by the renowned illustrator Dung Ho, further enhance the book’s empowering and feminist message. The illustrations are accessible and engaging, making the book enjoyable for young readers, intended for ages 4 to 8.
