About the Book:
My Princess Boy is a nonfiction picture book about acceptance. With words and illustrations even the youngest of children can understand,
My Princess Boy tells the tale of a 4-year-old boy who happily expresses his authentic self by wearing dresses and enjoying "traditional girl" things like jewelry, sparkles or anything pink. The book is told from a mother's point of view, sharing both positive and negative experiences the Princess Boy has with family, friends, classmates and even total strangers.
My Princess Boy is designed to open a dialogue about embracing uniqueness, and teaches children -- and adults -- how to accept those who cross traditional gender lines when it comes to clothing and self-expression. The book ends with the understanding that 'my' Princess Boy is really 'our' Princess Boy, and as a community, we need to accept and support young children for who they are and how they wish to look.
Get to know My Princess Boy and the family. This is acceptance in action: Parents, Big Brother, Psychologist, and Teacher - all working to support a child who has interests that are different than the mainstream.
