'Princess Arabella wants to play' is the perfect story to read on long drives or to cuddle up with on the couch at home.
Princess who...?
Princess Arabella was created by writer and illustrator, Mylo Freeman. Freeman had heard about a little African American girl who was offered to play the role of a princess in her school play. But the girl refused the part. 'There's no such thing as a black princess, there's no way I can play that part!', she said. To Freeman it was obvious: the world needed a story about a black princess. She created a picture book about a little, strong willed princess called Arabella. So far only printed books about Princess Arabella have been released and with the interactive book on iPhone, iPad and iPod touch Arabella is becoming a really ambitious little girl.
