Timely article and study and a good time to announce that we will be publishing a coloring book depicting princesses from all over the world (both real life and inspired)...stay tuned!!
"Her latest study, published in March in the journal Social Sciences, analyzed 63 princess drawings from girls in Fiji, India and Sweden. In this sample, nearly every drawing — 61 out of 63 — depicted a light-skinned princess, many of those resembling Disney characters. Fijian girls drew multiple Ariels; Indian girls drew Belles and Sleeping Beauties. Not one girl drew a princess in her country's traditional garb."

A researcher wanted to see how girls of different nationalities perceived the idea of a princess.
Love this! 🧡❤♥️💚

As a dad of little girls, I feel passionately about building a better, more egalitarian society for them. This children's book, "RAD Girl Revolution", helps empower and inspire little girls to consider careers in fields where women are typically underrepresented, and also helps instill a gender equal mindset in little boys. By using storybook style images of inspiring, diverse, REAL little girls, "RAD Girl Revolution" will be the book that stops gender bias before it starts! It's now available to pre-order on Indiegogo! Check it out at www.radgirlrevolution.com!
Rad Girl Revolution is a book that shows young girls they can Rise Above Doubt to Reach Any Dream! | Check out 'A Children's Book for Little Girls Who Dream BIG!' on Indiegogo.

I started this company after my 3 year-old daughter told me she didn’t want to be Chinese. I wanted to write a book with a strong Asian American character she could identify with. “Pepper Zhang, Artist Extraordinaire!” is our debut book that features a talented and strong-willed little Asian girl (who happens to be inspired by my daughter Madison). There aren’t enough children’s books currently that feature positive Asian children as the main characters or heroes of the story and Little Ning Books intends to change that!
