Review
Praise for I Am Curious! (Princess Truly #7):
“This delightful book features a relatable and inquisitive little girl who many readers-especially those who love science-will be able to identify with.” — School Library Journal
Praise for I Am Mighty! (Princess Truly #6):
“[T]he limited vocabulary and rhymed endings help young readers predict their way through the stories. Greenawalt’s nod to the beauty of girls of color offers an opportunity for all children to hone their reading chops.” — School Library Journal
Praise for Off I Go! (Princess Truly #2):
“Princess Truly is not only magical, she is also kind… This is evident throughout the narrative as she helps a penguin and tries to cheer up Sir Noodles. The book contains three short chapters with one or two sentences per page, making it a great choice for students who are just starting to read chapter books. The full-color illustrations on each page add to the fun, whimsical text. Princess Truly’s curls actually sparkle with rainbows when she works her magic. VERDICT This adorable story is a must-have for fans of the series, as well as a great addition to any early chapter book section.” — School Library Journal
Praise for I Am a Super Girl! (Princess Truly #1):
“Young readers who admire Black Panther but need to see superheroes as young as they are will enjoy not only Princess Truly’s magic hair and flightworthy boots, but also her confidence, creativity, and supportive attitude toward others… Readers will respond to this confident, can-do girl who demonstrates that magical adventures are easy to create.” — Kirkus Reviews
“Divided into three short stories and illustrated with energetic, colorful images that both mirror and deepen the text, this transitional chapter book is ideal for brand-new readers. Many children (and their caregivers) will also appreciate that, while Princess Truly does have magical skills, what makes her truly ‘super’ is her kindness, empathy, and creative problem-solving.” — Publishers Weekly
Praise for Princess Truly in My Magical, Sparkling Curls:
“Girls… will welcome this gleeful celebration of self-confidence and black girl magic.” — Publishers Weekly
“Explores the magical potential of Afro hair… [a] home-away tale worth the trip.” — Kirkus Reviews
“Princess Truly is a bold and bright role model of positive self-image and embracing your unique diversity.” — Booklist

Good theme of encouragement and believing in yourself
It has a good story theme, but I thought that Lizzie could have used something else, like a beach towel, for her cape, instead of cutting up her dress.
