Breana Greene, talented children’s author and artist, continues to build inclusivity in self-publishing with her heartwarming illustrated release, Black Princesses. Combining the fun of dressing up with much-needed representation of black female voices in fiction, Greene’s work is an exceptional contribution from a marginalized creative.
Black Princesses highlights the elegance and charm of twenty-five original black princesses. In addition to an engaging profile of each princess, the book includes colorful illustrations that depict each princess’s favorite gowns, hairstyles, makeup, and crowns.
Inspired by Princess Tiana from The Princess and the Frog, Black Princesses is a celebration of young black females and positive representation in children’s literature. This adorable collection of princesses shows readers that everyone deserves to see themselves reflected in publishing. Instead of waiting for that day to arrive, Greene has taken action on her own to challenge harmful racial norms that uphold the stereotype that princesses look a certain way.
These themes of self-love and black girls claiming spaces from the page to the palace will resonate with readers of all ages. Reviewers applaud Black Princesses, writing, “The diversity of this book speaks volumes.” In the ongoing fight to have black characters by black authors starring in children’s books, Black Princesses is a well-deserved victory.
Black Princesses is available for purchase on Amazon.com or wherever books are sold.
