Not All Princesses Dress in Pink

Not all princesses dress in pink.
Some play in bright red socks that stink,
blue team jerseys that don't quite fit,
accessorized with a baseball mitt,
and a sparkly crown

Princesses come in all kinds. Exuberant text from Jane Yolen and her daughter Heidi Yolen Stemple paired with charming illustrations prove that girls can jump in mud puddles and climb trees, play sports and make messes--all while wearing their tiaras Not every girl has a passion for pink, but all young ladies will love this empowering affirmation of their importance and unlimited potential.
