About
Karan rolls her eyes. 'What's this year's theme? Oh no, let me guess,' she looks into the distance, pretending to ponder the possibilities. Sarcastically she asks, 'Is it ... could it possibly be ... a princess party'?
Teish is a sassy, soon-to-be 7-year-old and the apple of her dad's eye. She believes more than anything, that she is a Disney princess. Her older siblings, Karan and Kim, like to remind her that she isn't. Teish is determined to believe that she can be whoever she wants to be.
With the help of boisterous, irreverent cousins and friends, a princesses-of-colour party with all the trimmings and an adventure to the beach, Teish teaches her family that she can be a princess and remain true to herself.
But will her siblings accept her being a feisty Koori Princess?

But will her siblings accept her being a feisty Koori Princess?
Teish is 7-turning-8 and loves Disney princesses - in spite of her older siblings and cousins teasing her about it. But she is determined to prove that she can be whatever she wants to be, that she understands the difference between make-believe and reality and that everyone has the right to dream big for themselves. This is a gorgeous little story with a lot of heart, and plenty of big discussion topics for junior readers and the adults in their lives.
