"Received an arc from publisher via Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.<br/>This book screams blackgirlmagic and blackboymagic. The pages are stunning with photos of beautiful black girls and boys looking like the royalty they are. The bios of the children are so interesting to read. I would love to get an hard copy are this to show it off."
