About the book

This book is an ode to spirited little girls who lead beautifully messy existences.

Watch as a little girl kicks a crown in the dust behind her to embark on her latest adventure. Our little girl is so many things, but she is most certainly NOT a princess. She’s an explorer, a climber, a lover of blueberries, and an expert at make-believe. This book is an ode to spirited little girls who lead beautifully messy existences. Who say “no” to princess costumes and “yes” to daydreaming. Who understand that their worth resides within, and not in some damsel in distress fairytale ending.

Sample illustration 1

Dad reads a newspaper while sitting on the toilet in a bathroom.

Your dad is NOT a king.

Sample illustration 2

A hallway mirror above a wooden chest; umbrellas stand nearby, and a broken vase and flower lie on the floor.

And you, my dear, are NOT a princess.

Sample illustration 3

A child lies on a picnic blanket beside a bowl of blueberries, with blue juice around their mouth.

You are NOT a BLUEBERRY, either.

Sample illustration 4

A child grins while holding a bagel, with bits of food between their teeth; an adult looks on.

What you CAN do is SMILE!

Sample illustration 5

Three children play dress-up: one holds a paper marked A, one wears a cooking pot as a space helmet, and one holds a green dinosaur toy.

You can dream of being a TEACHER, an ASTRONAUT, or an ARCHAEOLOGIST.
